Love and Lark....

By Amy Butler - this has been in my stash for forever so I was inspired out of the blue to make a quilt top this morning- what else can you do in the rain?

I love the brightess of the colours, it is going to look great when finished.

My daughter took a school group to the V and A museum this week and sent me a picture of this little gem...

This is a Patricia Roberts knitted lambswool and angora cardi - I knitted this ( not this actual one) in the eighties, it took me 4 years because it was very complicated and I kept putting it away! When I finished it I didnt like it on me so lent it long term to a friend who sadly then passed it on to someone else without my knowledge at the time- you can imagine how much I would really  love to have it in my possession! It could be worth loads of money!! I can see now how I always had a love for patchwork, even if I didnt realie it until the last few years!! 

I am very into scandanavian crime film at the moment - my latest love is Rolf Lasgard who starred in several series and films- The Hunter , and False Trail  are to be highly recommended as long as you like subtitles. Cant wait for the 2nd series of The Bridge  in January next year. 

Have a great eekend one and all
