She sews, He puzzles . . .

There hasn't been an awful lot of crafting happening here over the past couple of weeks, but I'm back and feeling ready to create again  : - )

Sooo, here's one I made earlier . . .

Actually I cut it out several weeks ago, but then it lay around just waiting patiently to be made up.

{a creative use of the hanging basket bracket, don't you think ?}

It's the same Colette pattern (free to download from here) that I used before,  made from the end of a roll of pretty Amy Butler fabric that I bought on sale. 

Now, last time I made a Sorbetto top and told you all about it, I also made mention of the Hubby's haul from a recent trip to Japan, and that provoked all sorts of questions.

(Pop over here and scroll down to the end of the post if you need a refresher)

Anyway, so I thought today I'd fill you in a wee bit on the Hubby's hobby . . .

he's a Metagrobologist.

A  WHAT  ?  I hear you ask.

He collects puzzles. 

 Not jigsaw puzzles.  Not crossword puzzles. 

 Most beautifully made and intricately designed, mechanical puzzles. *

And this, my dear crafty bloggy friends is why he never complains that yours truly has too much
 fabric/yarn/crafty stuff,  and always encourages & supports my creativity and accumulation of all things crafty . . .

; - )

Quite a collection, isn't it ?  And there's another whole cabinet on the opposite wall too.

So, whilst I sew, he puzzles . . .

Happy weekend all,  I hope to be around and catching up with all your lovely blogs too,

xoxo
