Quilts and home-decorating items with scenes of an old-fashioned, easygoing life. All the projects have been worked in a fabulous array of plaids, checks, and stripes, offset with special hand-dyed solid-color cottons. They share a palette of rich earth tones, warm reds, sage greens, highlights of purple, and evoke the fields and folk of country life. ]]>
Angry Beavers is a Nickelodeon Cartoon tv series about Daggett and Norbert Beaver, two brothers (who are beavers, hence the name) who leave their parents home to become bachelors in the forest. Their many adventures cause them to release their ugly sides, hence the name Angry. Hilarious! Great for adults and kids alike.]]>
Funky. Reminds me of the TV show Supernatural 'cause they LOVE Led Zep.]]>
So kitsch, its cool. Every romantic should have one.]]>
I love this kind of homey country stuff. Putting aside the abundance of summer for the lean winter months. This is a beauty about drying, preserving etc.]]>
I would read ALL of his books if only I could find them! They are pretty rare and not really in demand. A hilarious British gardening author with an old-fashioned feel.]]>
Modular knits that look like scales or falling leaves. I'd love to try it. Now I just need this instructional book...]]>

Pre Raphaelites - Love them! Especially paintings by John William Waterhouse!]]>
Love the autumn red colours and the pattern is great too. If I had this throw it would be on my couch or bed everyday! And in the car! And worn as a wrap!]]>
One day I will have the skill and patience to knit this for myself. It's beautiful.]]>
This lacy patterned scarf gives the effect of dragon scales and I love that!]]>
This coat looks bad in red and blue - reminiscent of Harlequin. But in autumnal reds it would look beautiful! Annie Modesitt's knitted lacy corset top is superb too.]]>
A hat that looks like a sock monkey! What will they think of next?]]>
What CAN'T you express with a button?]]>
The cutest non-threatening monster from The Labyrinth movie in stuffed toy form. I want one! I wish I had the skill to make one!]]>
Monkeys in embroidery - who wouldn't love it? and these guys are double cute and just a little cheeky!]]>
Love the use of colours. My favourite is the "houses" shawl on the right. It looks like its covered in scales. The autumnal colours are great too.]]>
