WOYWW 662

February already- I'd better start on my "C" cards soon!  Busy few weeks for me, so please excuse my absence from joining in WOYWW.  After working my notice for 3 months, I finally left my old job at the end of January, and started my new role last week.  To say it is tiring is an understatement - but I'm confident once I have learned the ropes, it will be fine.  Now I have my craft room back just for crafting, and not as an office (although still shared with my grandchildren as their bedroom).  I've just been too tired to do much, apart from a little crocheting in the evening.  However desks shots are what we are after, so here are mine:

Side desk - all prepped ready for some crafting next weekend - unless there is an unexpected invasion of grandchildren!


Main desk - equally as tidy me thinks!   The blue bag is actually a sample tool bag that I was given from work - lots of useful pockets, and very spacious!  Perfect for a crop ...


Progress on the JanBlan.  Two colour sets completed, just starting on the third one which I think will be big enough, once I add a small border round.


I've also started crocheting a lace scarf - just because I loved the stitch when I saw it, and wondered if it was within my limited capabilities.  It's coming along nicely!  However it is stitched along the length, rather than the width, so it takes a while to complete a row.

I did attend my first ever WI meeting.  The guest was a fairly local man who had been a contestant on The Sewing Bee, but as I never watched it, I was clueless!  Everyone else had lots of oohs and ahhs at the outfits he had made, and brought with him.  Time for a quick coffee, a chat with a few ladies and then home!  I'm not sure what I expected - and I will try and attend again next week, but it might not be my cup of tea after all!  

Have a lovely week, and I will visit as many desks as possible when I get home - before I fall asleep.  Take care, Heather x
