WOYWW

It is that time again!
I have been busy putting together little inspiration packs for Max to give out on her Tilly Tea Dance workshops. They are very popular so this time I have made 60.

I love sorting through all the lovely bags of "fluff" and yarns to coordinate these little gifts.
It does tend to take over my sewing space until I eventually get them into little cellophane bags.
AND then, I even had time for a bit of yarn dyeing this week.
These worked well and will be useful for some of Tilly's backgrounds.

She has an exhibition starting next week at Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre in Craven Arms so, we will be busy putting a collection of her pictures together this week.

So, that's my craftiness for this week - see you for another trip around the WOYWW desks next week!

xx Jo

I can think of no better thing to see hanging on the washing line.. how lovely. I imagine putting those inspiration packs together can be very therapeutic, what a wonderful gathering of colours. Thanks for sharing WoywW Hugs Tracey#8

Blimey, I haven't dyed anything for ages - did you go down the natural plant path or are they just Dylon? The little sample piles are very pretty and worthy of a photo in their own right!

How lovely to be dying yarn, and such perfect summery shades of green too. The little inspiration packs are so sweet, they would definitely inspire me to get needle felting!
