Wrap up of my 100 days project

So the 100 days has come to an end... awwww! I thoroughly enjoyed making lots of creative crafts over the last few months and sharing them every day on Instagram... the bug has bitten that I might just carry on (hehehe). Anyway's here's the last two days of what I shared:

I am trying to do the Summer Layout Madness challenges at Pixel Scrapper and this is one I made for their "Roll the Dice" challenge:

Day 99 - Digital layout for Pixel Scrapper

I have made good progress with my knitting... finished all 403 rows of the pattern but have found that the poncho is not quite long enough so have to still do another 30cm or so... will just keep going.

Day 100 - My poncho progress

And so there you have it... 100 days of Crafts with Cathy. I've shared:

Quilling: 53  (35 cards)
Scrapping: 37 (1x technique, 29 paper layouts, 8 digi, 1 card)
Knitting: 4
Sewing: 3
Baking: 1
Design team projects: 32 (8 quilling, 24 scrapping)

Sure is a varied list... hope you've enjoyed them all as much as I've enjoyed making them.

Week 13 of my 100 days

This past week I decided to concentrate on some of my other hobbies besides scrapping and quilling. I got caught up on my DT work so felt that it was time to focus on stuff that had been a little neglected too.

So my first thought was to tackle a little bit of knitting.... I scoured the internet for some free patterns, found some wool in my cupboard and then decided I needed a few extra colours, so a trip to the shops was planned. I bought four balls of wool and came home and started playing.

Of course with knitting you supposed to make a square to test your tension, well I didn't I just made a square and then a matching one and turned them into some fingerless gloves:

Day 85

Now that I decided on my stitches and needles I started with the project that I actually bought the wool for... I'm making a poncho. So this was how far I had gotten by Tuesday:

Day 86

Then in amongst this all I also tried a little bit of sewing. I spent most of the weekend unpicking a jacket that was a but snug and then cut some panels to sew in. I started playing with this and then it sat for a few days:

Day 87

Finally got time to finish my jacket:

Day 88

Now that the sewing bug bit, I cut out a pajama top and bottoms and sewed it all together on Friday. This was an impulse purchase when I was buying the wool... just saw the bolt of blue material on the pile by the material table and had to buy it! Now I have lovely snuggly warm pjs for winter.

Day 89

So now that I've sewed and knitted I also decided to do some baking. Again sometimes baking is very successful  and at others not so much. This recipe for cinnamon biscuits was one I had found a while back but not yet tried, so on Saturday I made them. The mixture was too sticky so I had to add extra flour then as it still wasn't the right consistency to roll into balls, I just pressed it into a tray to bake and then cut squares. They taste ok but not something I will repeat.

Day 90

My final share for this week it just progress on my knitting project... I'm about halfway ...200 rows of a 400 row pattern. Will see how it looks when the pattern is done and maybe add a few more rows to make the poncho.

Day 91

And so that was my crafty week... lots of other crafts to share and love. There are only 9 days left of this 100 days... wonder what I will do once it's over?
