A stove for our grand children

We found this on the side of the road needing a bit of tender loving care
We first stripped of bits, sanded & filled gaps with no more gaps, much to my husbands delight ..more sanding
Then we primed it
Tomorrow   the final coat I hope

Blocks,Kittens Bunnies & Rose Socks





Had a busy week.. First a nappy cake with 35ish nappies,then made a kitten for the cake topper & inch blocks for the baby to play with. Decorated it with roses made from 6 pairs of socks & 2 pairs of mittens for a bit of colour. Now to wrap for safe travelling
 
Then I made 4inch blocks for  when older & finally completed a knitted set. All done
