Doll House Sitting Room Update

January 28, 2018

Have some fun things going on with the sitting room for Poppy !!  I was able to buy a bookcase that I'm eventually going to fill up with fiber, yarn and craft books.

I have  her set up with her own knitting project !! Squeee !!! That tiny scarf was so much fun to knit  !!

And.... her little crocheted Valentine's rug !!!  She is a crafty little miss 💖

The bookcase won't be bare for long

I crocheted several heart doilies to see what would fit for her house and the others will be gifted.
There are 2 designs and they are in my Ravelry projects, Poppy's rug is Hearts Doily and the other pattern is Heart's Desire

Poppy wants to keep them all !!

Frank Williams Turkish Spindle !!

It arrived !!! Woohoo !!!!

I've been wanting to get a Turkish drop spindle for ages and finally worked it into my Christmas money this year !!

It's made by Frank Williams who lives in Australia !!  I like that he uses alot of native Australian woods.  This is the second spindle I've bought from him.  My first one was a Saturn Tibetan support spindle.  I bought both spindles from his Etsy shop - FWAussieSpindles
 
The Turkish spindle is just beautiful !! The arms are crafted from a beautiful piece of Goncalo Alves and has a West Australian Jarrah shaft. All hand finished with wax polish. Sigh..... so gorgeous !!

 A little sample of Liz Green Arts alpaca roving !!! Yum !!!

and it spins like a dream !!!

My lovely Dachshund Bag !! 💖
