Slow - poorly and lounging on the sofa with a temperature and a box of tissues, I finished knitting my socks in between naps.
.
Slow - still poorly, still on the sofa, and with Cary Grant for company, I made good progress on a tank top for me.
.
Quick - last night the antibiotics kicked in, and I made a much needed, quilted mat, to protect the new hall carpet. It is very simple - some leftover fabrics from my out-of-control pile, sandwiched with two layers of flannel on the back which makes it thick and non-slippy.
.
Quick - spurred on by making a mat in under an hour, and with the sewing machine set up, I decided to make myself a quilt top out of three favourite pieces of Kaffe Fassett fabric. The quilt top is very simple - just two 1 metre pieces of fabric, with 12cm of sashing down both sides to widen the finished quilt. It was inspired by the Six Of One and Half a Dozen of Another quilt in Last Minute Patchwork and Quilted Gifts. The whole top was done in about half an hour.
.
Slow - I now need to quilt the quilt and finish the tank top. Many more Cary Grant films will be required for this. How much do I love LOVEFiLM!
Sock knitting is the world's greatest sick bed activity.

ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon. Lovely mat, its a shame to use it!
ReplyDeleteOh dear oh dear. You haven't done it right at all. You haven't watched bad daytime television. You've MADE THINGS. That's not illness in my book.
