A late Post for March...

I didn't have time to report in about my March finishes yesterday.  We had a wedding to go to...set in a lovely country garden where the leaves on the trees were just starting to change colour...it was a lovely sunny day..just perfect for the happy couple
...so today it has been catching up on the household chores that didn't get done yesterday..another lovely sunny day...so I spent a little time outside stocking up on some Vitamin D...read in the paper recently that because we are now so good at avoiding exposure to the sun we are missing out on Vitamin D...it went on to say that we should go for a brisk walk in the middle of the day with our hands and arms exposed to the sun...seriously when the midday temperature in winter here  can be in the low range of single digits who would be wanting to try that???
My finishes for the month of March are
my couch companion
I added a little to the length and put some template plastic in the pincushion part so the pins can't go through to the back.
I also finished off a bookmark that I set up last December...since I want to start something else it had to be finished...

  2. That lace bookmark is really pretty. I found out I was Vit D deficient about a year ago, so have been making the effort to get into the sun more frequently, it's cheaper (and better) than buying the pills. In winter I try and find a nice, sheltered sunny spot and spend about 20 minutes there.
