In between work shifts and home duties I've made some time to continue with my scrappy crochet. No pretty pattern just using up left overs.
What looks like a big ole wobble on the left there is really not a wobble, I have the same number of stitches in all the rows, so I guess one of the yarns is bulkier than the rest and pushes things out a little. I'm hoping that when I add border rounds it will become less obvious. If it doesn't? Meh, its a scrappy donor. I can live with it.
Still on the subject of scraps, of all the things I could be doing today, to progress some of my WIPs I opted instead to play with some purple scraps.
These pretty purple batiks are left overs from Charmaines Quilt, made back in 2020.
It really didn't take long for me to sort out enough pieces to make front and back pieces for a zippy pouch.
The perfect birthday gift for a young lady who loves purple.
I'll add a gift voucher too.
That done I moved back to project that I had played with earlier in the day. I had started the day by pulling papers out of the edges of my Blue Lanterns EPP. After completing the purple pouch I decided to give the lanterns a good press before loading them on to the frame for quilting. Good thing I did as I found a point seam allowance that was on the wrong side......
How did I manage that?
A quick few moments with Jack the ripper and I was ready to fix it up.
Now I'm off to load it on to the frame.
