This post by the wonderful retro mummy inspired me to get off my bottom and make the girls some bloomers, something I had been meaning to do for ages as I’m not a big fan of disposable nappies on show! Living in Adelaide it’s really too hot quite often to put babies in clothes (we’ve [...]

My girls are 12weeks old
Posted in Knitting, Sewing, Uncategorized on October 28, 2009 | 4 Comments »
So what do I have to show for it? Other than two girls who are almost double the size they were when they were born…
Nothing beats sleeping babies!
I feel like I never have time to sew, knit or do anything, but looking back on the last 12 weeks I’ve done a bit and don’t feel [...]
A little bit of fellow knitter love

A couple years ago (I didn’t realise it was that long ago until I went searching for the post!) I did the Knitter’s Tea Swap 4 and had the lovely knitterbunny as my swap partner, we’ve kept in sporadic contact over the last couple years, mainly because I am crap at keeping in contact! Knitterbunny [...]
Some sewing FO’s, the girls’ nursery…

Somewhere in our now hectic life we’ve managed to take a little time out to get the nursery organised. Most of the sewing work was done while I was on leave before the girls’ were born. So here’s the run-down of the sewing I did…
-11 metres of bunting, enough to go round the entire room.
-Curtains [...]

Our twin girls have arrived, right now they are fast asleep and I’m having a morning of catch-up on the things I like to do for me…bliss!
Towards the end of being pregnant I just couldn’t sit down for long enough to write a blog post, I had incredible rib pain and just generally felt [...]
I’m still here…promise!

The last little while at work was exhausting and now that I have been on leave for a few weeks I finally feel like getting back into the blog…at least until I have 2 small babies to take care of anyway! I’m doing quite well still, but am starting to slow down, hence sitting in [...]
The one good thing about being stuck at home sick is…

All the knitting I can get done! I can only share one thing at the moment…the other two things are either not quite finished or will give away too much about what might be growing in my belly, a much guarded secret for the time being! So I’ll share the little jitterbug cardigan I made. [...]
Some little finished knits….

I’ve really hit my stride with knitting again after several months of basically living in a knitting desert. It helps to have two little people on the way into our lives. Over the weekend I finished the set I showed you last time and I love it. It took me about a week and a [...]
The other reason for not blogging…

Over the last several months I have been sewing on and off for my sister in laws wedding, in the last month or so it’s been non-stop getting the dress ready as well as my mother in laws dress and of course a dress for me! Which has left me with very little knitting time [...]
I’m waking up finally…

After a couple months of being exhausted and barely touching my knitting I am finally starting to hit the second trimester energy boost. Now all I need to do is take some photo’s of the small amount of knitting I have been doing in the last week or so after totally ignoring all knitting for [...]
