new year new projects

 Many of you would have seen.the new year in at a party but for me it was a quiet night with a box set and my hooks.


My friends daughter is soon to have a 5th!!!!! Baby so I decided  to make a gift. She has made a daughter a gorgeous blanket as has a mutual friend so I decided it needed to be something else.

 But more important than.what to make was issue of what to use . I am acrylic girl usually and have nothing soft enough  then I remembered my cotton from.wool ware house I bought in summer.





As you can see I have gorgeous colours but I had heard it hard to work with and splitting and the project never seemed right. But hey it's new year time for a challenge so I set to work 


Here is the result 





I really pleased with it . I have only boys and it was a joy to make such a girly  piece . The cotton was harder  but it was ok  . The booties are not perfect and one seems better than the other but we are our own worse critics and I am.sure the baby will forgive me
