~Some Stitching...Wool...a Carnival and a Book~





I haven't really done much stitching at all this January but I thought I would try out the addictive thread catchers that a lot of people are doing throughout blogland....I made 2 and they are certainly contagious!!!  I've cut out another 4....



Even tried out a fancy stitch on the top of one...


During the month I washed some homespun wool my Son and partner bought back from Argentina for me...




Mr Armchair took JoJo to a local carnival for a ferris wheel ride and they saw a Fairground Organ there...


Here she is on the top of the wheel


Looking at north over Corrigans Beach



I received this book and I'm soooooo looking forward to starting it and seeing Mr Lincoln the film when it starts...

On the knee front I've had accupuncture and am amazed at the result
My friend had some too and she's amazed
Can we be lucky a 3rd time...my Son goes today

Now I better get my act together and do those threadcatchers for OPAM (One Project A Month) which I have joined again this year
OPAM is hosted by Peg and Kris and there is still space to join...

Happy Stitching......can it be February already?!

Welcome To My World

Hello, my name is Dzintra Ingrid ... have been known as Ingrid and since our Sea Change I have started to use Dzintra ... pronounced without the D ... (but still known as Ingrid, I know, it's confusing ...)

Welcome to my world ... a journal of our Sea Change ... Mum to three wonderful children ... bringing up a daughter with a disability and seeing life through her eyes ... being a new Nanna ... photos ... inspiring quotes ... taking on a cookery course ... the odd recipe ... and trying to get some stitching done amongst all this ...
