A table full of projects

All of this to get through! 3 bags to line, 1 bag to needs a bottom and 2 hard glued baskets need the final touches.
So I'm just looking at them all ready to begin, I know once I start it shouldn't take long, but I'm just not getting that urge to get on with it.
I may have done too much today already.
First it was, lets go shopping with the grandson and get new tropical fish.
Next it was lunch at home with no 4 daughter and meet the new boy friend.
Then it was off to the dance studio to record no 3 daughter's dancing exam.
Rush back home to cook tea for no 3 daughter and her new beau' so they could get ready for a big night out, then keep hubby happy until he is zapping out Z's in front of the TV.
My turn I think, coffee and computer, leave the rest for tomorrow.
Do you agree?

Rag Bag Embellishment

What do you use for embellishment and where do you put it?
This can turn into a real challenge.
I have chosen an option here, but I would like to know where you would put the flower or flowers?


























Unisex Baby Jacket

I used a pattern from my stash for this little baby jacket, but I made many changes along the way.
I changed the hook size, the yarn thickness, the measurements, the sleeve joins, the collar, the edgings, the tie and the joining method . I may as well have written a new pattern and just used the stitch effect I was after. It's a new born to 3 month old size. Not such a big item, but it did take a few days to make because of all the changes. Was it worth it? Well you can be the judge of that.
