September

So, it's October.  For me that is the start of many family birthdays and then Christmas!  Time is running away....

September was amazingly productive for me: I finished two quilts.  This one for Jenny, which I started and finished in about 3 weeks - all ready for her new home


And my Bee a Brit Stingy quilt, which I love, love, love 





 
 I made some things for my Etsy shop
 



 
And I finished my first ever sock - I have one toasty foot and one foot that's waiting

I put this picture on facebook last night and a work colleague asked if my house looked like Kirsty Allsops as she could see a home made cushion and a home made quilt.  I soon put her right....my house is waaaay more home made than Kirstys :-)

Linking up with Lynne

    I love the sock, I have to knit them two at a time or I lose the enthusiasm for the second!!!

    I love your quilts, and I too have sock envy, but I'm a bit worried that your one bare foot is going to freeze to death now that summer seems to have turned it's back on us!

    You need to knit fast or that second foot will be blue soon! Great month of makes, Catherine.

    I am still so envious of your sock making. And your stingy quilt, if I'm honest! It is a beaut. And lol at your Kirsty reply! You are WAY more homemade than her!

    You have had a fruitful month in the sewing department. Now get a shifty along with that sock as you will need it. Autumn is here! Di x
