WOYWW 408

Hello and welcome back again to What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday!  Every week we take a sneak peak of other crafters' desks from around the world, all courtesy of our Julia.  Click here for more information:)


Firstly, I must apologise for my no-show last week.  All is well.  I had to take the mini-kitty to get her bits done and chose a day without thinking and without my diary about my person.  Bringing her home on the Tuesday night was not the easy, anaesthetic-filled ride I thought it would be, and so no time was spent blogging.  She is fine now and has had the all clear from the vet.  Winner.

ANYWAY (Sorry, Julia)...
Here's what I got up to since the last time:
I have motored on with Felicity the Lobster.  To mask the boredom, I have split it into sections.  I unpicked the blue claw and put in the colour that was supposed to be there.

My attempt at my Mother's Mother's Day card (hee hee).  I was meant to have an afternoon to make it, but work got in the way and I had an hour and a half in the end.  I hand stitched the picture in the middle (taken from harvesting a curtain I found in a charity shop) on to a fat quarter scrap, added 4 white buttons to the corners and stuck the whole thing down onto the card with my favourite craft product, double sided tape.

So that's my desk, what's on yours?

WOYWW 401 I'm back!

Welcome to another installment of What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday, as courteously hosted by our Julia here!

I haven't taken part since 2015.   You might have known me as Catlovesbear.  I stopped posting because my friend Fairythoughts passed away and I completely lost my crafting mojo.  Nearly all of 2016 was a miserable crafting void.  Until I got myself a motivational board:

 As ever, there are other projects going on all the time.  Currently, I'm knocking up two birthday cards.  I hope to feature them next week after both the recipients have received them.
 My big project at the moment is the Sydney tapestry I bought from a lovely lady called Hannah Bass at last October's Knit and Stitch show at Ally Pally.  Click on her name to see her full range of tapestries.
I bought the Sydney after I finished the San Francisco I bought at the same event a year prior.  I hope to go again this October but can't decide whether to buy the blue and yellow New York, Rome, Seattle or Vancouver!

This has been lovely.  Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by and see what I've been doing.  I hope you might also have time to take a look at another WOYWW blogger today:)
See you next week.
