Four finishes and a wedding!

Two weeks exactly since my last post and a lot has gone on! In the week running up to 'Our Big Day' things were so relaxed that I was able to finish a few things off. Firstly the scarf that I had started to knit.


Then I finished Official Crazy Cat Lady from Raise the Roof Designs.


This was stitched in the recommended over dyed floss on an unknown fabric, which has cat paws printed on it. I will probably make this in to a bell pull.

 

The next thing to be finished was the Spooky Greetings Bell Pull from Waxing Moon Designs.  I have the pull ware for this so finishing it off will be tonight's job.  Next up another scarf hit the knitting needles. Knitted in a different type of 'wool' this was a much easier knit than the previous scarf.



Anyway, enough of the finishes. Here are some photos of 'Our Big Day'.







These were taken by family and friends, the more arty ones by the official photographer. Next time I will post some photos from our Mini Mystery Honeymoon. Mystery, because I did not have a clue where we were going! It was all booked by the Groom and as you will see next time he did a good job.

Happy stitching!

So many good wishes are sent to you, Jen.

It was a beautiful day. One to definitely be remembered.

Your stitching is beautiful and congrats on getting so much finished on the run up to your Wedding Day. Nerves of Steel I'd say of better still 'Utter Contentment'. :)

Beautiful finishes too. I'm just starting to learn how to knit, but I'm not having much luck so far.
