Eek! How did we get to the last FAL list of the year and I've still got so much stuff left!?! Having only completed a pitiful two projects from my Q3 list I only have myself to blame.

2019 Finish-a-long – Q3 – 6 months down, 6 months to go!

I've uncovered projects that had gone awry, shelved in frustration; pieces I did to try out a new technique, then moved on from before they became a finished article; old friends who … Continue reading 2019 Finish-a-long – Runners and Riders
Down the rabbit hole

"And I can share tips and tutorials and stuff, share my thoughts and experiences with people, it'll be great!" "Hmmmm", the voice … Continue reading Down the rabbit hole
