Well, last week flew by with time spent with friends and family and, sadly, a funeral.

This week is unusual as hubby has been away for a few days so I have been free to roam! Nothing exciting but nice not to have get meals etc. 

Today I am out for brunch and then decorating my wedding anniversary cake. When I was young I thought it was old folk who celebrated their Golden but somehow now that's me! We are not having a do but have invited friends and family for cake and a celebratory drink over the weekend. Then we plan on lots of nice days and meals out with them over the next few weeks.

The only crafty activity has been a bit of dyeing for Tilly. I found a new use for my net veg bags....

They were perfect for containing the wool, fluff and curls while they dry on my washing line 

I am sure Tilly will love them and make good use of the results for her pictures and workshops 

So that's me for this week 

Have a good week. See you next week.

Good morning all.

Do you remember the beige boucle yarn that I showed you last week?

Well, here it is hanging out to dry.

I used a variety of acid dyes to get shades of greens and purply pinks as requested by Tilly.

She was really pleased with the end results and I think they will work well in her wet felting and for use on her workshops.

The other thing I want to share is this..

Years ago I was given lots of polyester flags. I have cut the logos off and now I am left with yards of thin fabric and have no idea what it can be used for.

If anyone has any clever ideas I would be grateful. It seems a shame just to scrap it but I really can't think of any purpose for it. What do you think?

Well that's me for this week.

I hope you are all enjoying the lovely weather with more to come I think.

This week I am watching the tennis at Queen's (only on tv not the real thing!)

Have a great week.
