I have had two cozy, well appreciated two days off this week.I have balanced out housework and crafting. I can not work in mess, and once things are all tidied, theres no guilt spending hours of my time crafting.
This week I have been revisiting old projects that need finishing.I do not know why we start a project with great enthusiasm and then simply get bored later...So this week is been all about completion.Now im back on these projects,boy am I enjoying my self.
My yarn stash of odds and ends is slowly disappearing into a new blanket / throw I
know exactly where its going to once its finished, in my craft corner. I am in the process of creating a new craft area for my self, and yes when im all moved in you will all be the first to see it in all its glory ha ha !When it comes to creative spaces I love to see how other crafters organise there spaces.
I have some beautiful yarn that I brought a few months back.I splashed out on some real wool yarns and what to have a go at some felting.What projects are keeping you all occupied this week?
I will be planning projects in the garden, with spring approaching the garden is coming back to life.This box of bulbs waits for no man.They are sprouting as we speak in the container so need to be planted ASAP.
This will be my container of choice a bucket!With a few drill holes and all those colourful
bulbs its going to look delicious.Im loving this hot pink colour at the moment.
Hope you all have a great weekend xxx

What a clever idea using your wine carrier as storage I think I will be copying that idea! your blanket is fab! Your black edging is great and the colours in the middle are much nicer than mine!!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend x
Thanks, glad you like my wool carrier.I still so like your blanket more x
DeleteEverything looks like it's coming along real well. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement x
DeleteLove the hot pink bucket it will certainly brighten a dull corner. The colours of the centres of the granny squares are delightful.
ReplyDeleteThanks, planted up the bulbs in my bucket and now waiting for a riot of colour x
DeleteDelicious blanket.....I'm a great starter too! :) x
ReplyDeleteThanks Ada,cannot wait till im done already thinking of a edging x
DeleteHello Joy - gosh you put me to shame, I have a couple of unfinished blankets that have been sorely neglected for so long … I'll think about them!!! Your black edged blanket is going to look stunning - keep at it girl, you're doing well! And I love your hot pink bucket, it'll be brilliant loaded with lovely spring blooms! Have yourself a wonderful weekend! Joy xo
ReplyDeletePS I'm still stitching and crocheting, trying to get a balance ...
Thanks Joy, im enjoying my squares and so easy to knock out a few while I watch TV.Hope you finish your blankets too x
DeleteWaiting to see your finished blanket.
ReplyDeleteThanks, im determined to see it completed, I hope I do not disappoint x
DeleteThe blanket is coming together nicely. Good for you getting all those odds and ends used up, it's such a relief to have them finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jen, it is nice to see those little scraps of wool disappearing x
DeleteThat bucket is going to look gorgeous with all the flowers in, isn't it lovely to see all the plants coming to life in the sunshine? Unlike you, I can work perfectly well in a mess - and I make huge amounts of mess while I am creating and then tidy at the end! xXx
ReplyDeleteI planted up the bucket with a mixture of bulbs, looking forward to colours x
DeleteYour blanket is looking great, sometimes it's hard to keep going with a blanket though isn't it and lots of breaks are necessary!
ReplyDeleteMarianne x
This is too true, hoping to knuckle down and get it done soon x
DeleteOh my dear.....I start soooo many things! I prefer to think of us as creative butterflies, settling for a short while on lots of different pretty things! :) x
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of being a creative butterfly x
DeleteHi Joy...Wow that blanket is looking so darn pretty! I'm just like you...I can't do anything till the house is all nice and tidy first, but then let the fun begin! I'm glad you had two days off to enjoy. I'm looking forward to seeing the crafty corner you're putting together. I'm sure it will be a wonderful little space you won't ever want to leave! xo
ReplyDeleteYour blanket is lovely, sometimes having a break from something makes it like starting a new project again when you return to it xx
