I bet the person who made it didn't get anywhere near £120.

Could you wear that without worrying that every second person would tell you it was inside out?

I even checked the label to make sure it wasn’t inside out!

My OCD tendencies wouldn't allow me to wear that without tidying all the ends up first.

I like thinks that are ‘tattered’ or a bit quirky but I’d never buy something like that I’d create my own! I wouldn’t copy the design either I’d make mine unique 😂

Diamond 💎 art completed - and now at my parents who are sorting framing it for my birthday. Once it was there had the task of removing the bonus cat hair! Will share a picture once framed

Well done Jen.

I’ve just received the parcel and first pattern for this year’s Debbie Abraham’s mystery blanket. Lots of lovely blues and greens, I had thought it would be a sea theme but I’ve worked out it’s something different. Still working on getting the right needle though!

Has anyone done one of those paint by numbers canvas things?
Easy?
Do they look good?
Sat here staring at fire which is covered by a flattened Amazon box (and has been for 3 years!) and suddenly got inspired.

Also thought cross stitch but that would be big and expensive and take ages then need a frame!

I had a paint by numbers canvass given to me as Xmas gifts when I was child and the result from it wasn't great, Pix. Probably being done by an adult, better results would be achievable.
