I was busy making the ami for the swap this week, obviously it'll appear here as soon as he's in his new home so I don't spoil the surprise. You'll just have to wait Steph! So after that I decided to carry on crocheting and make a granny square shrug, I love this pattern and have done three of these now, lol! They are just so nice to wear and look good as well as being so quick for instant gratification, it was finished in two days :-)
Love the colour, I used Sirdar Calico cotton so it's perfect for summer (if we get one!) and it's turned out great, I'm very pleased with it.
Also been stitching the flowers for my blind/curtain and got another couple done this week. The colours are really pretty to stitch with but it gets repetitive so every two or three flowers I stop and do something else so I don't get too bored! Hope to get it finished as soon as I can though as I want to get the curtain finished off, it looks at me every time I walk into the kitchen.......
Bit of a quiet week really not that that's a bad thing! I like quiet and no stress so pretty good :-)

Ooh gorgeous shrug Lori! And I love the flowers too. Can't wait to see the ami! Hehe.
Hi again Lori! My Mum was reading your blog (she's a big fan!) and she wanted me to ask you where you got the pattern for the shrug/cardi because she'd love to make one for herself! Thanks! Laura x
Ooh a fan! Hello Laura's Mum *waves* :-)
The pattern is in a book called Weekend Crochet, I'll send the pattern to you. It's dead easy to make, just a rectangle of squares joined up so it's fun to make!
Thanks so much Lori! Mum will be really pleased :)
