I have some pizza slice stitch markers lol
Don't force yourself to start a blanket, do what you enjoy. Too many podcasts temp us to do all the beautiful projects they show but in reality time is fleeting and life is already packed with family, home chores, etc, we don't need to over stress ourselves 😘
Oh my goodness you’re so right. This is the best piece of advise I’ve received yet. Thank you so very much. Xxxx
Hi Jeanette, love your frog 🐸 and fairy 🧚 xx
Thank you so much. Xxc
OMD’S that frog is fabulous, Off I go to buy the pattern lol. Thanks for sharing xx
You’re very welcome. Enjoying hooking. Xxx
We have a great room that includes the kitchen, dining, and living room. We have a raised bar with bar stools, but no table. There is no room! Our living area takes over the dining area. My husband thought a coffee table in front of the sofa where the top raises up to table height would be a solution, but it is always covered in crochet and knitting since I sit on the couch. 😂 He sits in a recliner anyway, never on the couch. We never sit at the bar, but my dad and stepmom like it when they visit. The bowl cozies are great for hot dishes out of the microwave. My aunt makes them with fabric and crocheted.
I love a list Jeanette, I feel so accomplished crossing stuff off. List making is an essential joy of life so you don't disappoint anyone or forget anything!!! xxxxx
Yes I agree. List are essential for me now, or I’d forget everything. ❤
Hi Jeanette, Emile has turned out fabulous 😊 . Can’t wait to see your fairy when it’s finished, I’d love to make a doll , but not too good with the sewing machine. I’m waiting for my Maileg Princess castle to arrive , any time so I’ll send you some pics of the mice then . As you was asking how the name Maileg was said , I looked into it and it is pronounced My - lie , hope this helps . 🥰 x
Oh thank you Julie. Maybe I’ll get it right next time. Lol lol
Oh I can’t wait to see the castle. How exciting. Xx
Hi Jeanette, I managed my day out at cool crafting, I spent my council tax money on stuff to make for luna lapping ( don't pay tax in February ) I stayed in the travel lodge and had lunch at Booths, near Booths is a shop called Armstrong Ward Lifestore , they sell Meileg had a lovely display and I thought of you. Thank you for all your hard work making the videos, take care Elaine from Nottingham
Oh that’s wonderful, I’m thrilled you got a day out in Kendal. Isn’t it to the best shop?
Do you mean booths the supermarket in windermere?
@@craftycleggscreations No its Booths kendal and Armstrong ward lifestore is at the back of Booths
Emile has turned out so sweet. I had the same feeling with a hat I made one of my daughters, they loved, that is what's important. Personally I would have liked a more contrasting color, but the design is very pretty. Love your bowl cozy, does it keep the food warm longer?
That fairie is so cute!
I don’t think it keeps your food warmer it just helps to protect your hands from the heat.
Hi Jeanette..Emile is a French name for boys... I love the hot water bottle cover.. doesn't matter if it's a bit big..the doll is going to be fab when it's finished..☘️♥️
Thanks for the info
Bowl cozies are the best, I have made over 200 and given or sold most of them, but we kept abou 8 of them for the two of us, my hubby uses them for potholders as well as for the microwave. That pizza fabric is great!! Hubby wants bigger ones for dinner plates to heat up leftovers. On my to do list.
Sounds great!
Hi Jeanette, I love watching your videos and yesterday I did the 4 hour round trip to Black sheep yarns! It didn’t disappoint! Lol x I have been wanting to go for so long xx as u know my Steve has dementia and he loved the cafe x it was very quiet when we sat in there x if u have had a medication change some medications can affect memory x I have emotional stress disorder and if you have had a stressful time or emotional stuff happening it can trigger it x brain fog, word finding, wrong use of words xx
Oh I’m thrilled for you both that you’ve managed a trip to Blacksheep. Isn’t it the best place? Karen and I love spending time there and they are all so friendly and helpful.. I have had change of meds recently so I wonder if you’re right. I’m seeing the doctor in a couple, of weeks so I will mention it to her.
@ it was just lovely x I did come home with heavy bags and a lighter purse! lol x to be honest I don’t drink , smoke or go out so it was my treat xx I have quite a few projects planned now but the big decision is what do I do first ! lol xx I bet your medication is having an impact x much love to u and Tim! I love your frog my son in laws surname is frogge so maybe a future project for me! lol xxx
Things don’t change much do they, my grandma used to sit me and my sister down with the button jar and we had to sort them into different colours for her.
No they don’t change, and I for one are so grateful they haven’t. We had such a lovely after that day my granddaughter and I. Great memories ❤️❤️
Emile is adorable ❤ yes bowl cozies are quite handy 😊
Gorgeous makes as always
What a treat to see you twice in the week xx
Thank you so much!
You'll have to show us your dresser next time, Jeanette. The UA-cam gremlins obviously cut it off 🙄 😉 I love everything as per! I can't wait to start my faerie now I have seen yours, she's going to be just beautiful. I have made 2 of the hot water bottle covers from Laura's pattern, and mine were quite snug, so perhaps, as you said, you knit a little on the loose side? Obviously, I could just be an extra tight knitter 😂 It looks lovely anyway, and your daughter will cherish it because you made it for her. See you next time ❤
I’m hoping the hot water cover will fill out a little when it’s filled with water. 💦. It’s definitely going to be a one off make, I’m not so keen on knitting colour work tbh, I’ll do it on toys cloths but that’s my limit. 😂
Love love the fairy , frog love it all ❤❤❤
Maybe if you draw Emile's smile on with heat pen or pencil then stitch over it you might get a smile you like. He's lovely btw. 😍
Great idea!!
Bowl cozy are also good when having a bowl ice cream! Frog is adorable, Emile is a boy.😊
I never thought of using them for cold foods. 😮
Your channel always makes me smile ❤ your sweet works and the things you say ❤ never change ❤
You are so kind. Thank you so much 😊
My hot water cover ran big too. I’m going to try hand felting it down a bit with soap and hot water
Oh that’s a good idea.
Hi Jeanette. Your makes are amazing. Thank you. x
You are so welcome
Your channel came up on my recommendations, I have now subscribed :) I love my bowl cosy my friend made me and I use mine everyday for my porridge. I didn't know they existed until I got gifted mine and now I wouldn't be without one! Like you she makes lots of lovely things. I have hopped across to your lovely shop and treated myself to a notions pouch for my crochet bits and bobs. I absolutely adored your frog and the fairy was beautiful, looking forward to seeing her finished and flying around your craft room. I also enjoy journals and now you have me thinking about a fairy themed one! I will check out your other channel as well x
@@debbiemaddock9509 welcome , it’s great to have you in our little UA-cam family. Everyone is really friendly around her and we all get on great. I’m thrilled you’ve joined us. Thank you so much for supporting my channel and my little Etsy shop. I have just posted out you bag this morning, so hopefully you will received it by tomorrow. Xx
@craftycleggscreations thank you so much, I'm looking forward to using it. Honestly I watch loads of crafting channels but more recently discovered vlogs and yours really is a joy to watch x 😊
Love the faerie doll pattern, very realistic in its features. The bowl cosy is a great idea. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome!
Jeanette ❤❤ so funny I thought you said something else ❤❤ xxx lol😂😂
I am big fan of bowl cozies.. been making for myself and friends for years..I make mine with the 100% cotton so they are also microwaveable..but I'm going to have a go at some crochet ones soon🤞...Emile is adorable..look forward to seeing dresser next time😁
Oh crochet bowl cozy I would love to know how they turn out. Xxx
Hi Jeanette have u got the right size bottle,that seems to small Pauline,&Brucexx
Yes. I choose to go the small bottle. Xx
I love the fairy, so beautiful😍
❤❤
Yes, video didn't attach😮 glad others said so ,thought it was just me.😊 hope we see it soon. All your makes are lovely.
Sorry about that just popped part 2 up on UA-cam if you’re interested. Xx
I laughed at the pizza fabric! I have it too. I make I spy quilts for the little people in my family, so I have a stash of all kinds of fun novelty fabrics to make the basically toddler size quilts.
It’s such a good quality fabric, ideal for the bowl cozies. Xx
Oh I love your fairy.
❤❤
Hi Jeanette love all the toys and bowl cosy , didn’t get to see the dresser it cut off but I’m sure it will be beautiful once Tim sorts it out .
Sorry about that I’ve no idea what happened. It must of been the teac gremlins. But I’ve popped paper 2 up if you’re interested. Xxx
I think if you blocked the hot water bottle you’d be happier with how it fits. It’s really nice
Blocking is definitely not for me. I’ve filled it with water since and it does look a litter better.
My girlfriend gave us bowl cozies and we use them for our ice cream bowl when we have a treat
Hi Jeanette, "Emile" is a masculine name; Amelia, or Emilia is the feminine version.
Is that a full size hot water bottle? Looks small on screen. If you’re worried about your memory you can ask you GP for a General Practitioner Assessment of Cognition. At the very least it will be a baseline on your record.
No I did the smallest size cover. I’m seeing the doctor mid February and I’m just going to mention my memory 😢
@ soonest done, soonest sorted. 🥰
Hi Jeanette I'm just sitting watching you on UA-cam, I've followed you for a while and I think you should leave the blanket, give yourself a break, enjoy the projects you want to do then do your blanket, do the other crafts and then do your blanket 😊😉 I hope this helps you x ☺️
Thank you for your advise. Xxx
Gracias por tus videos el patrón de tela cubre bol no lo encuentro me lo podrías pasar mil gracias
