and Forget-me-nots

I have been learning to crochet something that resembles what it’s supposed to be. Although I knew how to make the stitches I could never turn a corner without the whole thing curling up on me.

I am making Forget-me-nots for a project our local Alzheimers Society is doing. Would you like to make a couple of these for me/them?
I will attach the poster and instructions at the end of the post but any pattern you have on paper or in your head will be perfect. This week I am going to try making the forget-me-nots from fabric.

My weekends productivity

I made all sorts of centres and they are far from perfect but then the forget-me-nots in my garden are all a bit different 🙂

Thank you Sian at High in the Sky for Memorandum Monday. Waving wildly from Weston on an overcast Monday but its NOT raining! Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!

Does learning to use a new app come under learning or first time doing? I have no idea but I’ll tell you what’s new around here.

Paul & I share the shopping with him doing the bulk of it. I still get so tired walking around the supermarket.
Anyhow the list which I religiously make is always in a different place to either of us! And, worse, I think is that I write the menus for the week on the back of the list! It is a ridiculous, for me, thing to do, because once everything is crossed off the list, the list gets thrown away!

We have a new app called OneNote. It is an amazingly powerful tool but we are using it for a shopping list which we can share on our phones. (we can both access it from laptop, desk top and tablets) I have a separate page for my meal planner. Genius or what? I love it!

I just looked at my meal planner and noticed I have planned to have Slag Bol (from the freezer) one evening. OK nothing’s perfect. It is, like everything else, subject to the dreaded auto correct…

Thank you for this lovely idea Sian. Waving, Wildly! from Weston.

I have a second flowering on my Christmas Cacti! the world’s gone mad!
