WOYWW

Good morning to all my WOYWW buddies and anyone else who pops in to see what I have been busy with. My sewing room has actually had a bit of stitchy action over the last week...

Ben is hoping Santa will bring him a knight's outfit for Christmas so I have been busy delving into my fabric stash. I made a tabard, hood and cloak - all from fabric tucked away in drawers and cupboards! I hope he likes it.

Then, I had a request from a special friend.

She needed 5 little brooches - they were to be worn to celebrate the life of a special lady at her husband's funeral. A lovely idea.

Out came the lilac/lavender wool rovings. The colour was chosen and 5 little brooches duly needle-felted and a tiny scattering of beads to add a bit of sparkle. I think they will be just right for the occasion.

And lastly.. a little hospital tabard to go with Dr/nurses set for a little one in the family.

Never a dull moment here!

I hope you are all well and not too busy with the build up to Christmas.

Have a great week - thanks for dropping by.

xx Jo

WOYWW

Good morning all!

I am having a good sort out and putting a few bits and bobs on ebay in the hope of making room in some of my cupboards.

So, there is  a pretty little vintage table cloth, washed, starched and ironed ready to go and a few of my handmade brooches mounted onto a card.
Most of the brooches are made using my embellishing machine to "dumf" a variety of wools, silks and fancy bits together. I added a few hand stitches or beads to finish them off.

The pretty random wool is waiting for me to get going on another little knittie or two. (See post below)

On the left are two ATCs which have already winged their way from Australia for me - isn't that lovely. I will display them later once we have celebrated the WOYWW 5th anniversary.
My ATCs are in the wallet below, ready to take to Annie's so that we can post them out together.
Don't forget to leave me a comment if you would like to swap with me - I am sure I will have  enough - er well that is providing not ALL of the 150 or so WOYWW buddies want one. lol!!

Today is a twinnie day so I will be down at Annie's enjoying a fun time.
Thanks for calling and leaving lovely comments.
I will try to get round a few more desks tomorrow.
Have a good week.
