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:)

What I've been up to...

I nearly got all the purple work done on SYDNEY.  I tried to force finish it this evening but my eyes are sleepy.

 A plan for the muck up regarding Felicity the Lobster has been formulated.  The dark blue is only for the odd triangle shapes half way down the picture and not the claw.  I have enough of this colour to add the missing triangle, so will unpick the work I did to the claw and get started on the next colour being added.

This is the first week since I came back that I am able to actually show my work desk.  I bought an IKEA wardrobe (Ironically called Dombas (dumb-ass)) to go on the other side of the room at the end of January.  I decided I could build it.  I spent two hours looking at the pictures in the manual before fitting the top and bottom the wrong way round, the two inner boards the wrong way round and splitting the backing board with a panel pin.  It was then left.  After I admitted to DH that I was wrong about being capable in building furniture, he built it for me in half an hour when I was out.  I was overjoyed.  

It frees up a bit of room space and provides a tidy place to put upcoming projects.  Now, on the desk this week,  I have prepared for a new project that I have joined on Swap-Bot.  I did a poor job of a previous stamp swap and felt bad so this time I'm going to town on this one.  My package is going to Israel!

I'm leaving the baby sampler at the moment.  Something is making it hard for me to start and I don't know why.  So I'll wait until baby is born.  Be easier then as I'll be able to put the name straight in.  I have a couple more swaps to send out and am starting to look at decorating the Easter eggs I bought for my staff.

Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you might go and look at some other desks.  Have a great week! x
