Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

They are beautiful.

I'm really shocked about the fleeces :(

In general, our local sheep also have fleeces that aren't suitable for anything other than packaging/insulating material or flooring.

I wasn't looking at the janome 4440 at £109 with loads of stitches, different feet and a 1 step buttonhole.

Nor did I look at a John Lewis machine at £20 less with less stitches and a 4 step buttonhole.

Such a shame about the fleeces

Has anybody got Debbie Abrahams 'more blankets and throws' book? I'm looking for the pattern for afternoon tea.

Have promised Teen 1 a blanket to take to uni with her (not until sept 2017 but need to get ahead, considering I've only just finished my 2013 mystery blanket!)

So, I am "patiently" waiting for the first firing to finish in my lovely new kiln....
It's agonising!

Kiln!?! Lining yourself up for the throw down programme!!

Told husband I'm going to get a sewing machine- he didn't laugh and I'm sure he said OK!
I think I'll get the £110 janome from hobby craft - get a lesson in usage too then!

Hah! No throwdown for me, as I don't throw! 'Slabdown' doesn't sound quite so good. I need to find more ways to distract me from waiting. I've done a Park run, put the washer on. What else can I do until it's time to unload the kiln? ??
BTW, a new sewing machine is always fun. I really liked my janome ☺
