WOYWW

Well, the cough I mentioned way back in WOYWW 505 really took a hold - some nasty virus.
I lost my voice and came out in a rash and even now I am still coughing and croaky.
It is slowly improving BUT, I want my "bounce" back!!!

It just isn't like me. I guess that means that I have been lucky in life and kept pretty healthy.
So, February seemed to pass me by and I know I've missed two weeks of WOYWW fun.

I decided, come what may, I will be posting something this week.
Apart from knitting, I had little energy for crafty stuff.
Then Maxine said she wanted some little collapsible bins for her Tilly Tea Dance workshop tables so I set to and made one.


I need her "Ok" before I make a couple more but I think they should do the trick.
I love the Hungry Caterpillar fabric don't you. it really cheered me up.

We have had some stunningly beautiful, sunny days over the last week, so lets hope it lasts.

I will try and visit a few desks and catch up with everyone in the next day or so.

Have a good week.

xx Jo

    Love the bin but need to know how you’ve made it collapsible but still stand up. You’ve been missed so it’s good to see you back.

    I do feel for you Jo - when you're used to being healthy, it's frustrating when things seem to linger - it has with me, I am better now but the bounce has gone out my bungee (to quote Wallace & Gromit). THat Hungry Caterpillar fabric is gorgeous,, I've used it in the past and it just makes me smile. The bin is brilliant but (nosy me) I'd love to know how it works!!

    Sorry to hear you have been bitten by that horrid bug Jo, it really knows how to nibble at our motivation. Love that little bin & the fabric used. The Hungry caterpillar was one of my children's bedtime reads. I could do with making a little fabric scraps bin/bag.. You may have given me an idea before I put my machine away to make space for some painty stuff.
    Take care & feel better soon. Happy WoywW Hugs Tracey #7 x

    I adore that spotty fabric - makes me happy just looking at it. Great choice for a pop-up bin and I'm sure it will be very useful too. Have a lovely week! Hope your cough gets better soon. zsuzsa #18

    Awwwww poor you Jo...I can definitely relate. Into week 6 with this stupid cast on and no way to do any crafting ...no mojo and can't hold stuff and can't even figure out a way to sit at a table to do anything. ARRGHHHG !!
    I want MY bounce back too!!

    Sounds as if you have had a real dose of whatever this virus is. Hope you soon start to feel much much better.
    Lovely bin you made and I am so glad the fabric cheered you up and made you feel brighter - I have been using yellow in my artwork this past month and that has had the same effect.
    Hope your bounce comes back, I need mine too.
    Hugs, Neet 2 xx

    Oh poor Jo, it’s a horrid thing and the energy it saps is quite alarming. I hope by now thatyou’re starting to feel a little more normal..your bounce will be back, for sure. Meanwhile, the caterpillar fabric is lovely..the bin is genius!
