Love this post. Hope I can do something like this later today (my husband has to fix my laptop first, I am on his laptop now and can't put photo's on my blog with his laptop) I am working on a granny stripes blanket and I am really having fun with it.

Lucy, when it gets all too overwhelming I pay a visit to your lovely world where you gently remind us that life is indeed beautiful and to appreciate all of the loveliness around you :)

Oh how I miss Summer, your post has made me so envious being in the middle on winter here on the other side of the world. Love the Allium Bloom - I must grow some this summer. Such a wonderful use of colour as usual x Kylie

Oh goodness, I have a similar pegged-up blanket den in my living room.....with matching pegs! Blankets and cushions and old sheets far eclipse anything from a toy shop :) Your blog is so joyful and inspirational, Lucy - thank you and blessings be on you and yours x

Lovely as usual! I have started a blooming cushion this morning - already getting a bit addicted... I ought to be thinking about what to cook for lunch, but I'll just do one more, well, ok, two, or maybe three more rows..! Your eggs look good - perhaps I'll keep it simple today..
Supposed to be summer here, but more like drizzly autumn, so perfect for hooking woolly things! Have a lovely weekend.

I love reading your blog and it always gives me inspiration to do crafty stuff. Have taken that inspiration and begun crocheting some bowls which i plan on machine felting. I am experimenting with a two colour swirl design and love seeing the colours. Always smile when i visit your blog and see all the wonderful colours you are surrounded by.
Happy crafting MnM @ life's little stuff
