My Cretive Space - Swe(e)d-hearts

Finally finished this...

A crochet phone sock complete with a (kind of) Swedish heart cross stitched on it and eyelets. It took me forever to hook the i-cord!!! (And I do mean forever!)

Also is the first ever Swedish heart that I hooked up. Both are on their way to Alicia of Posie Gets Cozy. Hers is the first blog I EVER read (way back in 2007), and even though our styles are different, I do love looking at her gorgeous work. She had a birthday earlier this year, so being that Andy gave her an IPhone, I just had to hook her up a little gift... just a shame it's taken me so darned long!!!

My Creative Space - Raspberry Phone Sock

I have been away from blog land for the past few days... we had a house inspection yesterday, and my creative space was spread all over the house (need I say more???), but I'll share with you some of the latest.

I finished the raspberry stitch on the weekend

 
...which was just as well, seeing as I was giving to my sister in law for her (early) birthday before she heads to Canada and the States for a month. We had a great family-day-get-together.

I have to say I actually like the pattern made on the back of the fabric

... but I would never make anything just for that - it's just too fiddly! What do you think?

Also here is the finished photo of the Slubby neckie from the list. Sorry it's upside down. I gifted it to her for her birthday also.
