What’s On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 898

 Late to the party today, but better than not at all, huh! Thought you may like to see what I was up to first thing…

Look at that lot! A friend who works in a school uses every summer holiday to purge and clear, and her stash of yarn is ‘out of control’. She’s also a scrapbooker and card maker, so I’m wondering how those stashes are doing too….! Anyway, she asked me if I’d like to share this lot with WI, so of course I decided to sort it and have a good look. My whole kitchen island covered - if he’d come home unexpectedly Mr Dunnit would have fainted! Another hobby!  I do crochet but have no actual stash, just what I need for the little things I do, so he’s never fallen over bags or boxes of yarn at least!

Join us for a look at some very interesting craft areas, we meet and link over at Sarah’s. 

Wanna send healing vibes to our Helen too, my word gal, don’t do that again. Gentle hug hug hug.🥰 

What’s On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 897

I’ve been doing gentle crafting on the table in the garden, in the shade of the awning. Brings me joy to swap between a bit of stitching, crochet and some reading. Spoilt for choice!

You can see I change the upright ‘dining’ chair for a whicker tub chair, get my footstool situated and then enjoy every minute. The only downside is that unlike LLJ, I don’t have a gorgeous waiter to bring me drinks. I’m working on it! 

The felt shapes are die cuts that I’ve blanket stitched together and stuffed a bit, to make bunting/garlands, whatever you want to call them. In one of the bags is a bunch of die cut baubles and stockings…all for WI upcoming events…by the time they want Christmas stuff to sell I’ll be knee deep in wanting to make cards so I thought I’d get a run on. Well, I’ve cut them out, haven’t quite got past the flowers yet! For a change I’m brimful of ideas for various makes, largely due to the local community craft group that I’ve joined, my word what an assortment of talent there is there. The drawback is that they meet on a Wednesday morning and I’m not coping with that lifestyle change very well!

Stay in the shade, get a lovely man to wait on you with drinks and enjoy the still moments, if you’re in hot parts; it really doesn’t matter what does and doesn’t get done. A perfect opportunity I would say, for visiting desks! Join us over at Sarah’s Craft Shed, enjoy the views and maybe add your own?
