Good morning everyone ☀️ Long lie for me today. I've just had the raucus of excited parrots greetings and am now settling down with my first coffee of the morning while Grant continues to snooze on the couch and the parrots and I listen to some Classic FM. Well, most of us - Toby has just started screeching at me 🥴
After coffee and some Parrot Kitchen I plan to work on the crochet order that came in last weekend. It's an interesting one and I'm having to work out just how to do it, which means there is a bit of experimentation and pulling out work already done. It's all fun though 😊
Have a very lovely day, whatever you get up to 🤗

Camping and Travel Around Australia @campingandtravelaroundaustralia.wordpress.com@campingandtravelaroundaustralia.wordpress.com ·How to Create Your Own Tablecloth
Creating things yourself
Instead of going out and buying everything why not just make them yourself. Today I am going to show you how to create your own tablecloth. No it does not have to be perfect, if you don’t try your will never know what you can do. So lets give it a go!
Things you will need
- Plain white material or in my case I used a piece of calico (cut to the size you prefer)
- Sewing embroidery thread
- Sewin needles
- Scissors
- A transfer or copy of picture of your choice
Lets get started
The above is just an example of something to copy to embroider
For my tablecloth I cut out a meter square of calico material, then I got a picture and traced over it onto my material. There are a couple of ways to do this. I used a lead pencil and got a small box and put a torch inside it and covereed it with a piece of glass or perspex. This will act as a light box.Thi
Then I placed my picture on the glass and then the material on top and traced the picture with a lead pencil. A word of caution. It may pay you to secure the material and pattern so it wont move with some masking tape, so you don’t have it moving all over the place.
I Put my picture in all four corners of the cloth. You could also put a section of the picture in the centre, the choice is entirely up to you.
Now for the fun part
The above pic is one corner of the one that I am still finishing off
I am embroidering mine. If you would prefer you could use texters, or even crayons. I prefer to use embroidery.
Whichever you choose I am sure it will turn out lovely outlining or filling in all the beautiful details to showcase your good work.
Edging on your cloth
Once you have done that you will want to finish the edging off. A simple way is you can turn the edges down then sew lace all the way around and you are finished. This will look great, remember to choose colours that will enhance your table cloth.
Second choice edging
This above pic will give you an idea of how to buttonhole around, turning the rough edges under
I will not pretend that this is easy it is not. I did a buttonhole stitch all the way around mine and then I used that edging to crochet my own lace edging. Which ever way you choose I am sure it will turn out great.
Have fun, I hope you will give this a try no matter which way you do it. And if you are not keen enough to make a tablecloth why not just make a small table runner or even a doily to get some practice first.
I would love to hear what your thoughts are on creating something like this yourself. This is something that you will have created with your own hands and no one else will have one like it

The Art of Craft Making -ebook
Easy Home Crafts You Can Create Yourself
I wrot this little ebook in the hope that it would encourage more people to try their hand at a doing a different craft.
Crafting has always been a simple way to bring comfort, colour, and creativity into everyday life. Every project in this book is made with easy steps and everyday materials, so anyone can try them, even complete beginners.
These crafts help people slow down, use what they already have, and make something warm and useful with their own hands.
From crochet blankets and rag mats to quilting, macramé, pottery, handmade bags, dog coats, and even creating your own book, each chapter shows how simple it can be to make something meaningful.
If this book encourages you to learn a new craft then I will be happy. Give it a go, I have written this from the heart and things that I have tried out myself. I didn’t start crafts until I was 76 and now at 84 I am still learning different ideas for these crafts.
These are the crafts that bring joy, calm the mind, and remind us that creativity doesn’t need to be complicated. It just needs a beginning.

The sweater I finished this morning. Yeah, figured best to rip off the bandaid and unravel it right away. Sometimes the goddess of #crochet doesn't want something to be a sweater.
A) The pattern didn't look particularly good on me, but b) the variegation in the wool didn't work with the pattern either. :(. (Sad trombone sound).

Interlocking #crochet. Erg leuk (vind ik dan ;)), maar de eerste rijen zijn een beetje lastig, dus dan maar heel veel steekmarkeerders gebruiken 😁

Do foxes eat bananas?
Only the toe left on my nephew’s banana socks and at about 10% of the fox play blanket for my friend’s baby, but they were smart to start with the head so it can stare at you while you make the rest!
