Oh my I got the urge to Hop! It must be Easter!!!! Lets make a Bunny....link to a 60min bunny make..

Spring should be in the air...it is just difficult to see it under all the snow!

Well I am flirting with another blog site and have been a media tart and posted there as well if you fancy having a look...I  have managed to post photos... click on this link -

See what you think.  Would LOVE some feedback, good bad or ugly everything helps!

Also I have brought myself up to speed with technology after my netbook got a bit moody, i'd ask it to do something and quite often the answer was ' computer says no'!!!!

So I am working on a (drum roll please) a Sony Vaio Tap 20" ... it is amazballs a home computer and a giant touch screen as well it is like being in Lilliput when you use it as a tablet!!!!



To go with this I also, after being coached*  by Quinton Wench to do so, bought a digital SLR. I had to be very careful because the main enemies of these cameras are water and sand so living by the sea that really was an issue but I found a pentax k-30 which is weather and dust proof  RESULT! Double result is it comes in white! Actually it is also available in black, red and blue really nice to have a choice.





Must admit I am slightly in love with this camera but I don't understand all it can do...yet!  The manual is VERY thick! (insert your own jokes here!)

Here is one of my new photos..



Anyway that's my week so far....hope yours has been ok too.
(Dont forget to pop over and take a peak at the other blog if you get the chance really would appreciate it especially as the banner is set to black but is appearing green on this computer! weird!

Are we nearly there yet?.........



Well those of you who follow my blog will know that Eric the footballing yarn Pisky is complete and in fact the update is he is in the post complete with his own football...... which is actually a dog toy from a local pet store!  My furries got very excited when I walked in with it so I had to hide it quickly as pre-chewed was not the look I was going for!

Anyway that means an end to my self imposed exile from the spare room where all my projects are stored and a choice of what to finish next....

As I opened* the door first to hand were my set of extreme needles and bag of rag yarn... decision made....(drum roll please)...I AM GOING TO FINISH MY KNITTED RAG RUG.


 
 
 
This was started about 3 weeks ago and had to be put aside whilst orders were finished!
 

 

Ok, so my fellow yarn crafters reading this will being doing so with a rye smile knowing only to well that a new project/distraction is  just around the corner and tomorrow is another, creative, day of possibilities.

Hang on though if we all finished every project before starting another we might not have anything to show on the 'work in progress wednesdays' blog which would not be good.  Therefore all those of us with partners who can't understand how we can multi-task projects or begin something without finishing another first simply refer them to:



However hide the bit about FO Fridays until You are ready to Finish Off! ... might see you there Friday with my rug 'cos I think I AM nearly there!!!!




*for 'opened' read leant, kicked, prised
