It's the little things

A few little things I've done lately.

I finally got around to blocking the little bit of tatting for the christening gown of my friend's grandchild.


There are 2 seven inch pieces and  one 12 inch piece.


I think she'll be pleased.


I've found a nifty item for helping with blocking - a tiny iron! It works well. As you can see, Lily likes to help me.

In my latest round of feeling down, this has cheered me. Most amusing....

  1. Lovely edgings, should make the grown look beautiful.
    Nice small iron, it is a what they call a travel iron.
    Strange how these animals have to get into everything if they get a chance.
