❄️🧶 Winter nearly over Spring soon on the way
On cold days with a bit of time to spare always good to curl up warm with a bit of crochet.
Hats are fun and easy to make for most along with being useful to give to most everyone.
Along with another favourite pastime reading books - Winter the peaceful season with days flying by

❄️ Practical Lower Cost Winter Wool Blanket Idea
New wool blankets can be expensive
One way of having new wool type blankets at an inexpensive cost is purchasing large amounts of unused heavier weight wool fabric from others unwanted fabric stashes.
Trade Me is my preferred fabric perusal hunting ground.
Turn over hem the ends or fringe the ends depending on the fabric weave and personal preference.
Easy peasy new wool blankets at a low cost and minimal effort 😊

🌱 🌞 Making the most of the garden in our nearing end of the Summer and holiday season.
Always fun to try out growing new and different veges and herbs.
Fingers crossed this varied herb tray of potential wonders will spring into life very soon.
So many enjoyable tasks and projects to do
Thinking this year is the year to relax and attend to many simple things with unrushed enjoyment.
Time in life one always hopes to enjoy a variety of simple interest dreams

Time To Retire
Thank you to all customers and friends past and present whom have been part of my sewing journey phase of life .
Which bit by bit over the last few years I have found take a bit longer to do.
Won't miss the close eye work part required for sure. Sewing black fabric etc has been a non event now for quite sometime.
💚 Out in the garden this morning amongst beautiful light rain showers having a New Year wander.
Time to make the most of gardening, varying arts and a natural lifestyle even more.
Not to mention many home and garden maintenance tasks waiting to both do and learn more .
Another new stage in life with hopefully time and the ability to enjoy so many things.
Thank you once again for everyone's part in making the Stitchity Cottage sewing journey enjoyable.
At some point in time very soon I will be closing this page as a business page.
Happy, peaceful and productive 2025 to all
😊
