FNWF - February

The beginning of the month rolls around oh so quickly!!

Cheryll is hosting us on the first Friday of each month again for 2022.  It usually makes me "do" something - rather than just loll around crocheting or wasting time on the social media platforms.

So, my Friday night was spent finishing off a Lego holder for Mr Adorable Grandson - who will turn 3 next month . . yikes!

I found a pattern for this (maybe DD1 found it . .LOL)  - but it was for a lego base plate that is 16 cm square - the one I bought was 25 cm . . so some adjustments had to be made.
There are a number of things I'd do differently - but it's made and I'm sure it will be "fit for purpose" as we say in the IT business.

it was quite hard to photograph!  

I also worked on a pencil roll-up case for DD1 - when I made a stack back here for charity - I had one in mind for her, but it never happened.  It needs binding and a tie - so I will finish it off shortly and post it along with the birthday present.
I was tempted to start a RSC project - I had one in mind . . but after a bit of a play, a bit of a think, I've decided to move on.   I really do not need another project!!!!!


The rest of the night was spent drafting out a possible plan for a quilt . . more on that another time.

Thanks Cheryll for organising us again!  Go here to check the other crafty people.
