I'd do some animals, but you can't wear them

Do me a jumper with a picture of a dog jumping through a hoop of fire on the front please?

 

[RubyToogood]

I think you can do what I did with the crocheted blanket and enter under "Article of handicraft"

Also, I should stress, you do not have be a Lambeth resident.

 

[Biddlybee]

Are toys handicraft though? I dunno, also I'm just following a pattern.

No

Of course they are. And of course you can follow a pattern. What do you think I did with the blanket? I've recognised a few of the entries from patterns over the years. It's not cheating or anything.

 

[Biddlybee]

You're so good I though you might've designed it

I'll see if I have time, lots of babies coming up.

 

[colacubes]

I've still got an unopen jar of craft club marmalade.

 

[Biddlybee]

Fancy label... do it!

 

[colacubes]

Do it!

It's quite tempting. Imagine our great victory

You could always hold off actually handing the item over for a few weeks potentially... I was thinking of possibly doing that as I doubt I'll have time to knit something specially.

That's not a bad idea. I'll put my thinking cap on

 

[Orang Utan]

so, is it in field 69 that i can enter my amusing vegetable sculpture?

 

[Biddlybee]

I think that's only for kids OU

 

[Orang Utan]

i don't think so - there's a 'vegetable figure' in class 69. that's followed by the kids' sections

What's the theme?

 

[Orang Utan]

What's the theme?

it doesn't say, but i was planning on reconstructing leonidas' valiant defence of thermopylae, using peas.

 

[Biddlybee]

What you going to stick the peas together with?

 

[miss minnie]

Would it be cheating to fill a mould with peas and freeze them? A sort of pea-ice sculpture?

Thank you.

I don't think that would last even until the judging, let alone all weekend unfortunately.

 

[Orang Utan]

glue

 

[Biddlybee]

Hmmm

 

[tastebud]

my mates' band are playing at this - should be ace!
