WOYWW

 nother busy week has flown by and here we are again sharing our workspace for all to enjoy. Pop over to Sarah's Work shed if you too would like to join in and show us what you've been up to.

I thought you might like to see the ten twiddle muffs that will be going up to the hospital next week. I love all the bright colours.

After having made the mill worker's outfit for my friend's granddaughter, I had a last minute request for a maids outfit for her little friend. 

Luckily I had a Victorian style apron in my odds and ends of linen drawer. I had a black lined curtain which I cut up and made into a long dress, gathered at the waist. After searching again in my stash, I also found enough white linen and broiderie anglais to make a little mob cap. ( Forgot to take a picture)

I just hope it fits. It certainly looked the part.

They are participating in a school concert but I don't know what it is.

So that's me for this week. We are having a day out in Ludlow this week, so I hope the sun shines for us.

Have a good week.

Good morning all.

Welcome to my crafty space.

This week has been a busy one.

Above is the detail on one of my latest twiddlers. It's an underwater theme with a little swimmer, clown fish and coral. Annie made the feathery denim fringey thing and was going to bin it but I rescued it for my twiddlers. It looks just right wafting in the waves.😃

As usual I have been working on a few projects for Tilly Tea Dance. I had fun dyeing yarns ready to be needle felted.

Then I put together fluff for a pansy workshop - I love the colours 

And lastly here is my finished millworkers outfit 

I made a little grey pinny to go with it too. I hope it fits.

So that's it from me 

Enjoy this week's warmer weather.

 Good morning all 

This lovely sunny weather gave me the incentive to do a bit of Spring cleaning. I washed my curtains and then had to let them down and re hem as they had shrunk! They are all done and nice and fresh.

Then, I decided to re- cover the seats on my sewing room chairs. They are 1970s teak and go with the dining room table that I use as a sewing table. I really should paint the frames too but I ran out of steam. So, here are my finished chairs. There are 3 of them in my room so it was quite a challenge and lots of stapling.

My friend asked me to make an outfit for her granddaughter who is in a concert as a mill worker. I am waiting for measurements for the top and skirt but I made a start with this little shawl made from a scarf.

So that's me for this week. I have another set of bookmarks to do today so I will be busy!

Have a good week all

 Twiddlicious!

Good morning all 

Yes I have invented a new word.

I have been busy with my twiddlers.

I hadn't made any for ages until my SIL asked for one. It rekindled my love of making them.

So I delved into my 5 boxes of yarn and made a few more......

I have a few more ideas so will soon have a bagful for the dementia ward.

I hope you have been enjoying the bright sunny days. My car has been iced up each morning but the days have been lovely.

Enjoy your week. Thanks for calling by.
