Another granny cushion

 
Yet another granny square cushion! I started this one quite a while ago and at the time was inspired by all the Union Jack decor around, so this cushion definitely has a 'Brittish' feel to it. It has now been gifted to my dear friend at the dreamers garden to enjoy.
 
 


Linking up here today.

meow!

Crochet ...I just can't seem to get enough of it lately! Just before I went away, I crafted up this cutie as a birthday treat for a dear friend who has a special place in her heart ( and her home!) for ginger kitties. I think he is so sweet even with his crooked smile and now I think I must make one for myself in the image of my handsome gentleman cat, Oliver.
 

This ginger tabby is now happy in his new loving home, aaw!

Halloween has just been and gone. It's a shame it isn't really a big deal here in Australia...but since Halloween originates from the celts, Ireland really knows how to celebrate! Here are just a few cute shop displays I snapped while away in Ireland and the Uk. Maybe next year I will take inspiration from these and go all out and decorate the house with webs, witches and pumpkins.
 



 
 
And a beautiful owl I photographed at Dublin Zoo. Hoo  hoo!

pretty pandas

Well hello, it has been a while! Please excuse my blogging break as I have been on a month's holiday in Ireland and England...photos to come in future posts, once my jetlag subsides!
 
Just before I went away I was crocheting like mad to finish a few more pandas to give away whilst in Ireland. They are much adored in their new homes. I love them and there will be more on the way too....
 
The purple one may look familiar from here
