I actually made the 270 mile round trip to my Uncle's Funeral in Birmingham (I live in Surrey) so on my desk is my funeral hat (was bought for a wedding originally but has been to numerous funerals since) and the photo my cousin produced of me aged 5yrs in 1969. Also a quickly drawn family tree, so nice to meet up with family again.
I received my ATC SWAP from another desker Cindy and she enclosed a spare WOYWW5 ATC too - LOL. Double Delight.
I made a second ATC SWAP as "fairy" for one member who was unable to do one this month. I also made the cat card.
Oh and a couple of scrapbook pages. One to end my 13th album and the other to start my 14th.
PS It is a Blue Moon today.

Morning BJ. Glad you managed to make the journey for the funeral. A Faye Whitaker embroidery - gorgeous - I have done a couple as well - her images are just lovely! Well done on the really busy week. Feet up time??
Take care. God bless.

So sad to have to travel for a funeral. My condolences to your and your family. Love your hat. It looks quite a lot like one my Mother owned that I do believe is in my closet now.
Have a great day!! ~Sandy from Texas #31
BJ, so sorry for your loss! Love your hat, but sorry you had such an occasion to wear it! Blessings for peace during this time. I really like your scrap pages, too cute! I also love your swap goodies. I haven't entered a swap this year, I kind of miss doing that! Maybe I should reconsider, they are great fun! Blessings for the rest of your week! Felicia #29
Finally hopped back on the WOYWW wagon. I always come to your blog first BJ. Love your scrapbook layouts. As soon as I can clear my sewing table I'll be scrapping along with you xx Karen#36
Loving the scrapbook layouts but most of all your hat. I'm a bit of a collector of hats though don't get chance to wear them too often. Have a lovely woyww and happy crafty week, Angela xXx
it is so sad that someone needs to die for family to get togheter dont you think? have fun creating your 14th scrapbook, happy belated WOYWW Vicky#10
You’ve been busy! Love the ATCs again, these swaps certainly get you involved don’t they. Nice to be a fairy swapper too, very kind to take the weight of someone for a turn. visiting my Mum in Farnham is a 110 mile round trip for me a couple of times a week, it’s amazing how quickly they add up isn’t.
