Wishing you a colourful Wednesday!
My garden has burst into bloom over the last few weeks and the cold weather hasn't yet spoilt it all. So just before I show you my colourful crafty activity .......
And as if that isn't enough, my little sis brought these for me....
Then, yesterday, I tackled some Hang about bins for our favourite charity. Sally said they sold really well on her craft stall. I used some of the given fabric and cut out 9 of them. The lovely Jo Pritchard gave me her pattern and I've made loads of them.
Jo was a wonderful crafter and I always think of her when I get my pattern out.
So I do wonder why the first one didn't go to plan!
I forgot to put the boning round the top so had to do a quick revamp. It looks fine.
The second one was no easier.🤣
I put the base in upside down so the inside is on the outside. It still looks fine and it's only me that will be annoyed by it!
I'm sure the third one will be perfect 🤣🤣🤣
So, I hope you enjoyed my colourful week
Neet, if you are able to check out the desks, I hope you have enjoyed my colourful nonsense and that you are feeling a little better. Sending WOYWW hugs and good wishes.

And no one will notice the errors at all! The little bins are so cute (and handy) and remind me of JoZarty too, she taught me how to crochet at the first crop in Burbage! A lovely lady, sadly missed xx. Your garden is still so colourful, mine was ok until the frosts, now the nerines have gone over there’s not much left.

at your skill level, no one would ever know what you did and didn't intend or forget...absolutely no sign of the boning being an afterthought at all! Your garden colour is lovely, I can't get over the Choysia, mine is covered in flowers too, and only yesterday did I finally give in and pull out the geraniums and dahlias for their hibernation, it really has been so mild. My neighbour has a big and beautiful fuchsia like yours, it's in the front against a little wrought iron boundary fence between our two patches of front garden.....I use it as a beacon, often tell people that ours is the house on the left of the big fuschia and it never fails!
That little cardigan is fabulous. The hang on baskets/bags are very useful and yours look good to me. We all make mistakes, I probably make more than most! But there is usually a work around. Happy WOYWW. Angela #10
You made me smile, we all see things that feels wrong or aren't good enough but people who receive them don't even notice anything. Love the flowers, they brighten the day and the little cardi is gorgeous. Wishing you a very happy woyww. Hugs Angela x9x
Your garden and flowers are beautiful, and your hanging about bins look great. We’re always our own worst critics!
Happy WOYWW

your garden is still looking fabulous, I have a fuchsia still flowering madly. You seem to have rescued your hang about bins well! Happy WOYWW. Helen #2
Adore the rainbow cardi, and gorgeous garden. Hugs Bj#12
Love the cardigan and those beautiful garden blooms Jo. You will always be the only person who notices your mistakes - it is the same with all crafting I think. Stay safe and happy belated WOYWW. Sarah
ooh those bins look great and noone will notice as you rescued them well. the garden looks amazing too, I love autumn colours.
kyla
Lovely colours in your garden.
What a lovely colourful rainbow cardi for that little girl. I'm sure she will look a picture wearing it. The hang about bins look great, Jo and I'm sure anyone will be delighted to own one of them.
