WOYWW #405 - Embroidery

Well who've thought it, me back at embroidery! Did a lot back in my teens from kits, following a printed pattern, so nothing quite like this!

Been inspired by Jan and the 1 year of stitches  challenge so set to on Monday, and am just going with the flow....


The fabric is a piece of old table cloth with an ivy design in the weave so I started with that, all outlined on my previous post - here.







Also saw my GP on Monday and am trying out some new medication to try and sort out my ageing female reproductive system! Find it quite laughable to be "on the pill" at 53yrs!! We'll see, not worked before!

The other MAJOR thing on my desk is my new Ed Sheeran CD - Divide.
LOVE IT LOADS.

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

WOYWW #398 - Flowers Abound

Here's my desk today. Just got a couple deliveries, 2 books for preschool and 3 stickles.

The stickles colours are:- Lagoon, Gold and Raspberry Tart.

The Raspberry Tart isn't exactly what I was expecting as the basic pink colour is flecked with holographic blue a bit like the Crystal.

My makes for this week are, a tag for a SWAP.


Then I used the left-over flower diecuts for a journal page and one of my favourite poem quotes by Edna St. Vincent Millay.

I will be the gladdest thing under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers and not pick one.





Finally I did the last page of my 60 page 12th 12x12 scrapbook album.

Still have over 100 photos to scrap to finish off 2016, goodness me!

Happy WOYWW Everyone.

PS And my favourite music of the moment is Ed Sheeran. I downloaded his latest 2 singles and have pre-ordered his new album due out on 3rd March called Divide. Oh YES!
