The main reason for me being absent has been a massive tidy up of the house. It becomes a bit unnerving when the guys (and gals) at the tip (dump) great you as a ‘long lost friend’!!!!
I’ve now done six trips to the tip which is, fortunately, just outside town. I’ve also been lucky enough to have been able to park my car outside our house. This is unusual due to the fact that we only have on street parking and it’s a busy road. Anyway, I digress.
During my period (which is not yet over) of clearing, tidying and cleaning I’ve also managed to snitch an hour or so to do a bit of crafting. Mainly I’ve been working on two sort of secret projects but sewing on the patchwork idea has also had small amounts of time spent on it too. This is where I left it when I last blogged.
Here’s another progress picture - bearing in mind that I’ve only had odd moments to get on with this!!!.
Tidying craft supplies certainly can be time consuming! I need to get back to it this week!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could feel inspired to clear out my house! A few months ago I thought that I should do this, since a lot has accumulated since we came to live here 12 years ago.
ReplyDeleteSo I emptied three boxes and that made me sad, thinking about throwing any of it away, I did fit it all back into two boxes though, so it was a start!
Your jacket is going to be stunning.
This is about 30 years worth of clutter, Maureen and a lot came from the pub Nick used to run and is from before my time here!!!! He’s really relieved we’re doing it.
ReplyDeleteOh, Diane, I haven’t got to the craft stuff but there isn’t much of that!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks great!! :)
ReplyDeleteSewing takes lots of time!! ;)
You’re making progress in many directions!
