Happy Wednesday - to all our What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday friends - and anyone else who pops in to see what I am up to!!

This week I have been busy sewing & knitting and even helping childmind those gorgeous little twins. They are such little poppets.

Their mum asked if I could manage to make a couple more little cover ups for them this week. Well of course I can!! I found this cute spotty fabric in Watson & Thornton's in Shrewsbury. Perfect for the job.

My other little task was to make this pretty ivory satin horseshoe.

We have lots over in our blog shop - SistersCraftyCreations.

I made this one as a special request and added silk & satin flowers and tiny silvery beads.

I think it will make a nice keepsake don't you?

Lastly, in case you missed my last week's update on my little jumpers  -

All this lovely wool came from Linda and Lyn of KEMPS WOOLS who went home and found me a carrier bagful of odds and ends from their own supplies when they knew what I was doing for the "Fish and Chip" babies. Crafters are such a generous bunch aren't they. Thanks girls.

And here is what I have managed this week......

Annie now tells me that she has probably got another bag of wool coming from her craft suppliers. I think we shall be busy for months!! I am happy to knit in the evening - when my busy social life allows me (lol).

OK folks - join in the happy blog hop by following the link to Julia's Stamping Ground. All sorts of crafty folk meet up there on a Wednesday so pop over and see what they are up to this week.

Thanks to all my visitors last week - I love to read your comments and see what you have been busy with too.

Have a great week.

A close up of the goodies on my table today ( what makes you think my room must be a mess!!)
Annie wanted some little cover ups for the twins so we worked on a pattern and then bought a few bits and bobs to make these. They have terry towelling on the back of the bib so should keep the tinies clean.
I have nearly finished the little sleeveless cardi for L.  Her big sister P. already has hers and they look fab. I just ran out of wool about 10 rows from the end so had to buy a bit more. Then, of course, I  was tempted to buy the gorgeous Rhubarb Jelly Been DK. It will make some lovely little summer shrugs.

These are the latest frocks for the "Dress a girl around the world scheme".  They were made with scraps left from all the other frocks we have made. They take longer to make because of all the gathers and seams but I like them don't you?

And lastly just a few snaps from my day over on the Welsh coast at Barmouth.

The sun was shining so we set off, driving across to Aberdovey, Towyn and Fairbourne. We parked the car and walked across the railway bridge to Barmouth. Such a fab day for the beginning of March.

Well that's it for this week - enjoy your blog hop - will get around as many desks as possible and look forward to seeing what you are all up to. Join in by calling over at Julia's Stamping Ground and add your name to Mr Linky.

Thanks for calling by.
