R.I.P. DARLING REECE.....On Decenber 27th in the early hours of the morning our beautiful grandson Reece died aged 16 months old. Tears in my eyes make it very difficult to write this. We all loved him so much he was a wonderful little boy, bright, intelligent, loving and funny. He has left a big hole in our lives.

Here he is in our garden, this picture was taken in September 2008. The other picture was taken in December 2008. A happy little boy looking forward to Christmas. Little did I know that when I took this lovely photograph of him that 12 days later he would die. He developed pneumonia and it took him fast. God bless you and keep you safe until we meet again darling Reece.

So at some point I hope to spend more time putting some of my wool work onto my blogspot. But not today. I have a printers dead-line date to meet!

I spent 4 weeks in Malta so that I could be there with my daughter for the birth of her first child. A beautiful little boy called Reece. Here he is just a few minutes old. It was a very hot 43 degrees on the day he was born. So he did not need any of grandmar's woolies for sure!

It's been some time since I posted anything. But then I have been very busy being a New Grandmar.

Samuel arrived safely into the world in April. The Reece arrived safely into the world in August. I was already grandmar to my dear beautiful little Sophia. She is the light of my life seen here with her new baby brother.

And here is the finished cushion, a simple flap-over design trimmed with three coordinating tassel toggles.

This is the third item I have made on my loom, the other two items being scarves. The loom is warped up for another cushion, this time I have used a chunky yarn and the new 5 dent heddle I bought at Woolfest this year.

I had woven the required length I needed but still
had some warp left. I continued weaving with
light blue Lambswool/Angora to use up the
remaining warp.
