I took Arthur to our local museum in Exeter which has been refurbished. It was wonderful Arthur loved the interactive book!

Today my offering for celebrating our hands (along with Josie ). I have been making a corset http://charlottesewfarsewgood.blogspot.com/2012/03/oh-la-la-how-im-coming-along.html and the final sewing by hand I wanted to capture. I placed the camera on my lap and carried on sewing. I asked Arthur 2 1/2 to press the button. Didn't he do well!

I hope you are enjoying my journey this month along with Jossie at http://www.myhomemadehappy.com/ . I have had a realisation today that I have only photographed myself or Arthur, my other children are all busy being teenagers with hetic social lives and my darling MrPB has been working away from home without even a visit for the weekend. It has made me realsie how stable and contanted I am to contine without the constant props of others, don't get me wrong I have had a tough week but the thing that stableises me the most is time out via yoga.

Sorry somewhat sidetract!!

Today is my knitting that didn't go as well as I hoped but I was pleased with this picture

Yarn Along

Since I found out about yarn along with Ginny at http://www.gsheller.com/ I have just wanted to be able to knit something g more than a square. I took up this challenge in a very serious manor! My offering was a beginners waistcoat, clever see, no arm or button holes. Well this is what happened :

From here it all looks ok until

yes it's about three sizes to big and one side is longer than the other. I worked to hard for so long!!

Maybe a belt would help?

well a sack of potatoes springs to mind!

Maybe I'll wear it around the house.

At least I had managed this refashion earlier in the week. Blogged about here http://charlottesewfarsewgood.blogspot.com/2012/03/fingerless-gloves-celebrating-our-hands.html

So now what? I feel that my down fall may have been a long top, how about something smaller. I am still keen but not sure what direction to take, any ideas?
