22 Weeks ::
Posted by vicki brown on
Now I'm getting back into regular blogging, I thought it would be nice (for me as much as anyone else!) to keep a little pregnancy diary here on the blog.
So I start today at 22 weeks.
(I really wanted to include a bump picture, but to be honest, could not get one I would be willing to share publicly! I really need an assistant! Will see if I can get Milo to have a go for me next week. So instead...

Crochet Granny Bunting :: A Pattern ::
Posted by vicki brown on
Many moons ago I wrote my first ever crochet pattern, a series of simple crochet triangles strung together to create some bunting.

Oh my, it's been a while, I'm sorry to have disappeared so suddenly and without any explantation.
The beginning of the year did not exactly go as hoped, there were losses and upsets and dramas, that put a stop to all my well planned New Year resolutions and then I got very ill, super tired and to our great surprise we discovered we were expecting another baby! Milo is beyond thrilled especially...
