craftiness

dear friends, Edie and Poe

Amidst all the galavanting up mountainsides, down river beds and into bluegrass, I have managed to squeeze just a little crafting in. For our dear friend Edie, who is such a kind, funny, sensitive and fun friend I made this top. Designed to keep Edie's very special arms out of the sun. For the past three years I have been making a top similar to this for Edie and it is always lots of fun to do. Edie, I hope you love this year's version. 

Packed safely next to Edie's top was Ruth's headpiece order. Thanks Ruth, hope you and those five heads love them.

And then I started on some Christmas crafting, oh yes, and it has been really successful and lots of fun. I do however miss my crafty partners in crime.

Oh but I did manage one craft night with the lovely Kelly, who brought along her spinning wheel, she was spinning wool from her Angora rabbit, pretty awesome I say. We also drank tea, ate cake, consumed some delicious homemade rose wine jelly (thanks Kelly) and had some really lovely chats, oh so nourishing. I hope we can make it a regular event. 

Weave is starting to run a craft-in every month on a Saturday afternoon with chai, cake and conversation, so hopefully I will find some more crafty friends.
