Sharonnz: Wearing It
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011/09/wearing-it.html
Sunday, September 4, 2011. I'm working hard on improving my sewing from the slap-happy beginner I am. My main struggle is with getting the fit right. I finished this dress back in June - just when it got too cold to wear it. Next time I'll downsize the top even more and attempt a proper Small Bust Adjustment. It's a forgiving fit being a wrap dress. I bought Pip's Sew La Tea Do. Yeah, t-shirt doesn't match - will sort that out before summer. Meet Me at Mikes. Sew La Tea Do. September 5, 2011 at 2:10 AM.

Sharonnz: Sewing It
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011/11/sewing-it.html
Tuesday, November 8, 2011. My parents have joined the e-reader revolution and bought themselves Kindles. This was a super easy, fun project. It just about took more time to select the fabrics than do the sewing. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy.

Sharonnz: May 2011
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 15, 2011. I have finished a variety of knitted objects while I've been somewhat inactive. Yes, that unusually shaped jersey IS for a dog - my sister's daschund, Lottie. Crazy, I've gone crazy. Knitting for a dog. Golly. Baby knitting to use up stash yarn. This wee cardy is a lovely new pattern. From Kelly. I've cast on another one already. More socks for ME. These are modeled by my big girl who is trying to tell me that she fits my socks and shoes. Not quite yet! Socks from the Toe Up. We did...

Sharonnz: Sustaining It
http://sharonnz.blogspot.com/2011/11/sustaining-it.html
Wednesday, November 2, 2011. How can a sustainable local community (which is to say a sustainable local economy) function? I am going to suggest a set of rules that I think such a community would have to follow. I hasten to say that I do not understand these rules as predictions; I am not interested in foretelling the future. If these rules have any validity, it is because they apply now. 1 Always ask of any proposed change or innovation: What will this do to our community? 8 Strive to supply as much of ...

Selfish Knitting | Sufficiently crazy in Southbridge
https://evltre.wordpress.com/2009/01/13/selfish-knitting
Sufficiently crazy in Southbridge. Life in our weed-and-junk-filled, chicken infested safehaven…with a fair bit of knitting thrown in! Laquo; Cleaning up… and growing veges. Wow I’m popular …. January 13, 2009. I’ve decided (inspired by a bunch of the lovely TNN ladies) that this year is going to be the year of knitting for me! Enough of the longies and soakers and baby hats. It’s all about lovely, pretty (warm! Rustic 12ply, in Spice Plum and found a lovely little pattern for a caplet. In the meantime e...
