Autumn project progress

I am beginning to wonder if my Autumn project will be finished this Autumn -  I must get it done !  The trouble is that I have started some other projects that have to be done by a certain date - I should not be stressed, craft is for fun!

Another item that is required for the project are mushrooms/toadstools and below are the patterns I have come up with from various talented crafters.

This great pattern from Annaboo's House is available here and I just love all the different colours.

Another great in the more traditional colours from Loopsan and the pattern is here.

Petite mushrooms from Amiamour and the pattern is here.

A great varigated colour mushroom from Diyods and the pattern is here.

Anyway I had better get mushrooming.

Craft shops information required

As a fairly new resident of Ireland, I have found it very difficult to find a good allround craft shop, either physically or online.

I would like to compile lists of craft shops in Ireland, including online, in the categories of woolcraft, fabric/quilting and general.

I would also like to compile the same type of lists for the UK and other parts of Europe, as they often send goods within the EU.

I need help with the contents with these lists.  If you know of any craftshops that should go on these lists, please send details of their name, address, telephone number, either in the comments section or send me an email.

Your help would be appreciated.

Wednesday's Wishes - Autumn Patterns

As you may have guessed from previous posts I love Autumn, mainly the colours and the natural beauty of the season.  This post is full of patterns and ideas that you might want to try, now that the weather is cooler (I know this won't necessarily apply to my Aussie readers).

This fantastic crochet square is a pattern from Pamelaspatterns on Etsy.  It is unusual, in that it uses a bit of broomstick crochet (something I have always wanted to try).  I love the brightness of the sunflower colours. Pamela has more patterns in her shop, including lots of great blankets.

This nice print is from PureJoyPrintables on Etsy.  Lorand has an interesting concept, in that you buy the print file and then print it yourself, so you don't have wait while it's in the mail.  He has lots of files available, including some great Christmas ideas.

This delightful Autumn fairy doll pattern is from Noialand on Etsy.  This shop has over 100 fabulous patterns, with many different animals and dolls made from felt.  The patterns are instant download, so you don't have to wait.

This beautiful embroidered owl is a pattern from Sewjenaissance on Etsy.  The Autumn owl is one of over 60 patterns offered by Jen in her shop.

This very warm looking Autumn slouch hat is a pattern from Swellamy on Etsy.  Amy has 100's of other patterns, for other hats, applique, scarves etc in her shop and they are instant download.

This very nice bookmark pattern is from Rumpelfeltskin on Etsy.  Alison has lots of interesting wooden items in her store, as well as a few more patterns.

This great knitted seed stitch beret pattern is from Ebruk on Etsy.  There is an enormous amount of other knitting patterns available from this shop, as well as finished goods.

I hope this has given you inspiration to use all those Autumn colours you might have in your stash.
