WOYWW

 

It's definitely a good day for snowmen!

This is my latest little placemat.

And to continue the theme.....

We had about 3 inches of snow yesterday.

I was up early and made this snowman by 8 o'clock.


The eagle-eyed amongst you might notice the scarf is made from strands of wool 😀 Of course my snowman is only about 10 inches tall and sitting on my bin. I did it as a joke for Ben. (It's what I do!) 

I've been busy with flower/hedgerows workshop packs this week...
Lots of rainbow packs of wool rovings all ready to pop into their bags ready for next week. I like to get them finished early so that there is no last minute panic.

And lastly, my job for tomorrow......
Just a few more bookmarks for Tilly Tea Dance.
I love choosing the right coloured Madeira rayon thread to edge them with.
I like to be busy.🤣
So that's me for this week.
I hope you are managing to stay well and cosy.

Have a good week.

Love your snowman, when we got up yesterday there was a big one on the path down the road and I can't think when they must have made it probably very early in the morning. I would love to play with those gorgeous threads they look like the ones we used for the machine embroidery, gorgeous colours. I've been felting more mushrooms and will show you next week. Take care and have a good woyww. Hugs Angela x11x

Oooh! I love the place mat! ❤️Will you be making more? They will be heirlooms for sure! It seems so weird to see you guys getting snow in the UK before we have had any here in Canada (well, Ontario at least!) Such a cute little snowman! Have a great week, stay warm! Lindart #14
