I have a fancy to make some fleece slippers. I remember this time last year, some of you were making them, but I can't remember where you got the patterns. There seems to be a bewildering array out there (courtesy of Google!) Can anyone enlighten me?

Several of you have been asking for details of our recent trip. We began by spending three hectic weekends running at music festivals where we were both playing and reconnecting with old friends. (Sorry, Christine, I don't think there are any videos up o

Preserving advice please. A pleasant surprise was waiting for us when we returned from our holiday - ripe grapes! I want to make some grape jelly which I've never done before. Please share recipes with me. Do grapes have enough pectin or do I need to

I think it is time to get everyone stitching up some new ideas! I've been looking back on previous challenges and the one I enjoyed best was "The sunflower challenge" (see link) I hadn't realised it was so long ago!! Does anyone have any good ideas

Right then - own up, what is the silliest thing you've done this week? I was making a bag last night and I stitched the top closed instead of the bottom. I didn't realise until I turned it through and noticed that things would fall out of the pocket.
