Here is the other Rowandean kit finished. I amazed myself with the "fluffy" flowers - still Rosebay Willowberb , but in flower rather than the French Knot buds. You cut pieces of chiffon about 1 cm square, then folded them in 4 (fiddly!) and then attached them with invisible stitching. It worked pretty well.
I wasn't so happy about the ripped net at the bottom as it overstretched and then I had to stitch it totally into place. The long pink stitches were as per the instructions. Not so pleased with those and I may alter them...
Today was a shopping day, and I managed to find two suitable frames for the Rowandean kits. More snow is forecast so I got another box of cat sachets, to have another one spare.
No walk today as it was not very pleasant out - low cloud, cold and another named storm getting up (Chandra). This will be bringing lots of rain, mostly below us though and the poor West Country will get hit again. Tomorrow's walk may be in wellies . . .
Now, off to find another UFO - it may be knitting as Elderberry Bunny has been abandoned for a year and Tam has asked for her to be finished before Rosie hits her teens!
