WOYWW

Good morning all. Thankfully we have had a snow free week but it sounds like next week might be different.

I've started knitting a few items for the charity pre Easter craft fair.
I tucked this little fellow into one of the nine Easter bunny  bags that i made with fabric Jan gave us. Cute?


Below are a few of the Tilly Tea Dance brooches that I stitched brooch pins on to.
I love the floral ones.

So that's my crafty activity for this week.

Sending a virtual WOYWW hug to Neet. I hope she pops in to see what we are up to. Get well soon Neet!

Thank goodness our weather has warmed up 

This was our street last week ...


I hibernated for a few days and continued with my jobs for Tilly 

She brought boxes filled with gorgeous felted bookmarks for me to edge...

Before..


 And after...

And finally a beautiful hyacinth that my dear sis gave me. It has now opened and the smell is delightful.

Short and sweet this week..

Have a good week everyone.

 Good morning all. Happy What's On Your Work desk Wednesday!

I hope the weather hasn't been too cold and snowy for you. I have hibernated for the last few days but did manage to de ice my car and get out for some shopping yesterday.

Whilst hibernating, I managed to knit a chunky cardi for my friend's granddaughter....

As usual, the amount of yarn recommended for an age 2 to 3 was just not quite enough so I teamed it with some toning yarn for the neckband etc. 
It's certainly a cosy little item 

It has been a bit of a struggle with this nasty little cooker burn on my right hand. It's healing well but catches on everything now 

My other post Christmas activity was this fab jig saw Max passed on to us. The plain colours were a headache but we both enjoyed doing it. Isn't it beautiful. It reminded me of our summer time trip to York where we saw the Van Gogh event in St Mary's Church 
So that's it for this week.
Sending our good wishes and. WOYWW virtual hug to Neet.

WOYWW - last one in 2025!

 Good morning all!

I hope you all enjoyed a happy and peaceful Christmas. 

 Ours was a quiet one but lovely nevertheless.

Really this week has flown by and now we are looking forward to the New Year.  This week I have been pottering in my sewing room sorting a putting things away....


Some of these went to the hospital and the rest are waiting to go to our local cancer charity craft fair.

This one went in Ben's stocking.  I've made him a chocolate orange cover each year. They prove very popular.

We have been working on this jigsaw...

A bit tricky but fun.

Lastly, I will share my attempt at cake decorating....


It looked so simple to do this little wreath in wet icing when I looked it up on YouTube. Of course it was much trickier but the cake is delicious so that's all that will matter to my friends and family.😃

Best wishes to you all for the New Year.
Special love to Neet. We are all hoping you are comfy and well cared for, presumably still in hospital.

WOYWW -Happy Christmas!

 Only one more sleep!


Best wishes to all our WOYWW friends and to anyone else who pops in to see what I'm up to.

My sewing room has been a busy place but mostly with parcel wrapping and a little bit of work for Tilly 

So I have posted one of my Christmas cards to share with you all 

I think today I will be prepping food and finishing off a few bits and bobs 

Thanks to everyone who left comments about my bruised and battered thigh. Thankfully it's fading now, although the bruise got much bigger first!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas.

Special love and good wishes to Neet. We are all thinking of you and send you a big WOYWW hug.
