'tis I! Dotty Doily!

Welcome to the Dotty Doily Blog...

My name is Anna and
I am a Designer & 
Art Director in Sunny South Devon. 

My blog is an outlet for my love of craft, in particular crochet, and features reviews, new projects, patterns and a bit of showing off!

Thoroughly cross with myself for wasting January weight loss wise! Ok there’s a lot on and I’ve been stressed but there’s only so many times I can trot that pathetic excuse out! So after a bit of self chastisement I have made egg muffins to freeze for breakfasts and piled a ton of speed into the lasagne sauce I’m making right now. Using that valuable weekend time while my daughter naps to give myself the best start I can for the week. Just got to make it past hump day and I reckon I might have a chance. #slimmingworld #weightlossjourney #kickupthebum #mealprep #healthyfood #tillystubbymummy
Been to see our new house today! Looking pretty real! #shitsgettingreal #newhouse #newbuild #yay
#latergram gorgeous lasagne by @cfazak followed by lemon drizzle cake by my own fair hand for my birthday yesterday #notsorryonebit
I hope this little one is happy with her first proper Christmas haul in the morning! Looks pretty impressive but we have tried not to go too mad in view of her not even being two yet! Not her first Christmas but her first to get exited about! #santastophere #cantwaittoseeherface #misstillytreefrog
Finishing touches to the rainbow cape for my girl. She’s gonna love it! Pattern from #littlecrochet by @lindamade - second time I made this cape - the first was for Matilda’s cousin Maria years ago. #whileshesleeps #misstillytreefrog #dottydoilybabymakes Now for a new WIP... might see about using that @scheepjes whirl up next...
Meant to add this when I got it but it dropped off my radar a bit what with poorly babies and familial visits and the like. I guess this is quite an achievement but still feel like I’ve a long way to go and my mojo slipped a bit the last few weeks. Time to give myself a talking to (hence this post) and get back on it. If I tried I could be another stone down by Xmas. Maybe I will try trying for a bit. Once I’ve finished this homemade lasagne. And some malteasers... 🙈 #slimmingworld #slimmingworldjourney #weightlossjourney #tryingtogethealthy
Happy days with Grandma Carol and a rapidly growing girl taking some reasonably steady steps at long last. #latergram #misstillytreefrog #theygrowupsofast #babymilestones @cfazak
