Bit of Fun


Good Morning! I am in the Folksy Listing club again this month. I ran out of items and did not get going with the October club but I am now ready to list every day. I have made, photographed and edited 6 items and have 2 more downstairs to do this morning. When and if it gets properly light....!
All I have to do is keep ahead of myself and all will be well.
It is a great way to keep me focused on one thing at a time as I do tend to trip about and waste time doing half a job.
So here is my first offering. Wine Glass Charms. I have done my research and the prices charged are between £1-£2 per charm so I have made up little packs of two and at the moment they are £2 online and may be £3 at craft fairs. (This did make sense to me when I printed the bag inserts)
Have a good day.

Half way there!

I am halfway through a cross stitch sampler. I do like band samplers, and this one is called a Rymic Sampler I believe!

Anyway it is in 6 colours, 4 pinks and 2 greens and I think it will be very pretty. It is to match a cot quilt handmade by Louisa Gault. I found her on Folksy and she made a larger quilt last year for my daughter to give to Alice.

This year is Lucy's turn. She will be One in December and we will not be able to be there so some special gifts from Granny and Grampy Apple are necessary. (Our name is Smith and I am NOT granny smith thankyou)I will show you the sampler and quilt before it is sent to Sydney.

Lost!

I logged in to check on all of the blogs I follow and my dashboard told me that I do not follow any blogs. What!!!!!!!!!!!

I refreshed the page a couple of times and you are all back. Phew!

I do enjoy popping into the blogs I follow and checking out the shops. All good fun and when people comment on my blogs I enjoy the feedback. I have even had some ideas given to me for items to make through the 'comments' so I would miss you all very much.

Just off out to lunch now to meet friends. We are off to Neston Farm Shop. It is such a beautiful day we are hoping to sit outside! (I have a jacket and scarf in reserve.)

Have a good day.
