WOYWW

 Good morning all.

These WOYWWs come around all too quickly these days.  I love to see what you are all up to but it only seems like yesterday that I was composing my last Wednesday post.

It has been a busy week and my sewing room has actually seen action this week. 😃

I've been finishing off some lacey bunting for a sale for the Harry Johnson fund.

Then I made some little bags too. One sold before I actually finished them 🤣


All the fabric was gifted so it all helps raise funds for a brilliant local cancer charity.

Along with the sewing, I managed a couple of dyeing sessions for Tilly Tea Dance.

It's all a bit random and chemistry was never my strong point.... but I seem to gauge just the right amount of dye for the colours Max asks for.🤣


So that's me for this week.
Let's hope we get a little more sunshine and a little less rain this week. 
Have a good week.
xx Jo

Those little bags and the bunting are so gorgeous, they’ll sell like hot cakes! I like the deep pinks and purples of the dyeing too, I’m really into those colours at the moment despite having never been a pink girl in my life!! Especially pink paired with grey or apple green…ooooh, lovely! And your’e right, Wednesdays are definitely coming around faster, lol!

Hi Jo, lovely little bags. Loving the dye colours you used too, I used to love dying fabrics and yarns when I was teaching because |I could make as much mess as I liked without worrying about it but I have to clean my own mess up now Hee! Hee! Wishing you a very happy and creative week. Hugs Angela x10x

I just got you mixed up with your sister! I mentioned in my comment on her blog that I was waiting for re-stocks at TTD and hoping for some more book mark kits to come in! Hoping to message Max later. That lacy bunting is beautiful and so usable too! Have a splendid week, Lisa-Jane #11 www.prettymypage.co.uk

Gorgeous colours you have been dyeing - just occurred to me that the neighbours must wonder what goes on at yours with all that weird washing hanging out.
Love that lace bunting! Wow.

All the fabrics that you have dyed look wonderful with their slight variations in shade. You did a great job.
Pretty bags - no wonder they were selling even before you had finished making them. I hope they make lots of money for the charity.
