A couple of quickies

 Sometimes you just want instant satisfaction from a project don't you?

A quick, one day, or few days to give you a break from the long term commitment type project.  I made the two things I'm going to show you today around about the time I was procrastinating over my dining room seat covers.  They've been hanging around since then, waiting for a moment to be shown.

This first little project I love.  It was a very pleasurable day spent in the craft room, faffing with fabrics and trims.  Using some of the little hexie pieces I got in a swap a while ago.  The idea is not mine, not one tiny bit of it came from my head.  It's another Nana Co creation that was so fabulous, I couldn't bear not to have my own.


 This second one though....

Naa, not so much.  The pattern I like, it's cute.  But I didn't have enough in one yarn or the other to make the whole thing, so I decided to use both.  A mistake, I don't like it.

I really like both colours separately, but really I wish I had enough of the duck egg blue colour to make the whole thing.  I would have been much happier if I had.

It was very quick to make, so one day, if I find the right colour I might do it again.... properly!

Pattern:  Shortie Shell Caplet by Kathy North
Yarn: Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Chunky in Pale Lime (031) and Pale Teal (011)
