Well here we are - Wednesday again - it seems to come round even faster these days!!
I hope you are all happy, healthy and busy. Thankfully, I am.
My table has a few things to share with you.
My Hangover and Hangabout are both hanging over my sewing machine and have now been added to our blog shop shelves. Both Wipso and I are busy making a few more of both, so by the time you read this there may be even more in the shop. (Click on the word "Hangover" in the left column in the shop).
So, you can see some lovely tartan and denim that I am going to make a more masculine style Hangover with.
Also, I found a gorgeous, deep pink jumper in a charity shop. It was just calling out to me to hot-wash and felt it. Not sure what I will make with it. Maybe another little outfit for a sock doll and some scented hearts.
The little note book has quotes at the bottom of each page.
I like this one ...
Constant kindness can accomplish much.
As the sun makes ice melt, kindness causes misunderstanding, mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.
Albert Schweitzer
(I am posting it in memory of another Albert - who died 22 years ago on the 5th April and who was the kindest Dad anyone could wish for.
And finally, just a few signs of Spring - hedgerow flowers, snapped on my walk down to our local car boot sale. No bargains but these lovely little violets, blackthorn blossom and primroses made up for it!
Have a great day everyone and I will pop over to Julia's tidy desk and join in with the WOYWW blog hop later.

Beautiful words Jo and so 'just perfect' for such a special man. He was taken from us far too soon but some folk never have such a wonderful role model in their lives.
Hugs,

Look forward to seeing what you make with the pink sweater -- love the colour.
You certainly produce lots of great stuff

We are drowning in blackthorn blossom, here. Apparently it is the sign of a harsh winter ahead.

Busy as usual, you two really keep yourselves out of mischief don't you!! Love the Spring flowers, none of that here yet, sob sob! Saw your earlier post that you won a Bug, great stuff! You can get lots of cutting dies for it and I know it will cut felt among others things. love that embossing folder with the houses on it.

Lovely lovely words for your Dad. Thanks for Sharing and hope you have a happy WOYWW. Caroline (No 31 x)
lovely projects on your desk, and the flowers are so pretty.
I could use a pockets type of thing for a wheelchair bound friend. If you ever have any inspiration for something that might work ...
Love those chair hangovers such a great idea! Happy WOYWW Hugs Rebekah xx (63)

Hi Twiglet - lovely words. I was sitting talking about my Dad last night and still miss him over 30 years on. They break the mould don't they when they make such special Dads. I'd love to try felting sometime - so many ideas to try out - and the flowers are beautiful as well as the luscious pink on your desk! Thanks so much for calling by and commenting! Di x #89
this desk shot reminded me that I have been intending for the last (ooh too many) years, to make a cover for my machine, seeing the work draped over yours reminded me that it's something still have not done...now if only I could find time!
