Ohh Dior is it on the blog?

Welcome jas btw.

Have been doing lots of crafting but no blogging, been doing lots of different things as my boredom threshold is low of late.

I have however made myself a very nice top, which I actually wore to do the school run yesterday

Not yet, haven't had a chance to get ds to photograph me with it on, he's started his courses this week and they are a bit full on. He's spent most of the weekend compiling his Art project.

Am a bit fed up with myself too, mum's in hospital having her elbows and shoulder done and the two men of the house have both got the man hump/flu, so am not much fun at the moment.

Ah well, could be worse, could be raining.

How's you?

We've had lots of rain today but it's stopped now, glad you're doing well though. My crafting's going well just can't get round to completing anything, well apart from said top.

My mate now wants a peg bag so I've bought fabric for that, she keeps msning me every night to ask how her peg bag is coming along

Oh yes, I want to make something like that for throwing my work uniform in when I want to wander into town in the morning and go straight to work from there.

Nope must finish other things first.

I'm so behind on here... I have hardly done any crafting this week... I'm hopeing to get some done tommrow.. finish off the fairy tale swap, do a bit more on the robot swap.. and um I cant remeber what else I need to get done.. but anythign that is craft related and not house related would make me a happy bunny.

The children went back to school MOnday and I had such high crafty hopes but I am absolutely shattered. My poor old body wants to collapse and sleep for a week but my little brain is on overdrive.

I have blogged a few bits and bobs recently but I have loads of crafty stuff outstanding still and some really exciting news I have to hush about...oooh, scary stuff!

Lovely bracelets dior!

I have blogged a couple of mini projects I am working up for my friend's cancer charity craft stall. She is a ceramicist but also a FT teacher and has gone into full panic mode to try and put enough stuff together to make a stall! I offered her a box of stuff I made last year but can't find the box now , so am madly knitting and crocheting in my spare moments! (oh and if anyone has any proper corks (ie not plastic ones) I would be very grateful ...
