WOYWW197 messy

Hi desk hoppers
Not much going on on my desk this week .... DD3 moved at the weekend so we were all very busy there all weekend.
 GD Erin was very full on today, so didn't get anything done, except a card her Mum asked me to make to say thanks to their  conveyancing solicitor.


 
The canvas at the back, where you can see my reflection...... is for the patchwork I am making for my bedroom (remember I promised to finish it by friday).
Also some cute dog  fabric for my next, lillyboquilts.   in an appropriate paper bag.


This was taken at lunch time.... I have just finished making the card so lots of alphabet stamps and inks.

 
It's not really finished .... well you didnt think it would be did you... the yoyos' are not  sewn on yet... but you get the idea!!

Here is the finished wall hanging and a close up below






 Below is the wallpaper the patchwork is based on

 
 
Well if you have any spare time pop over to see Julia ..... the inspiration for all this nosiness. pull up a chair, grab a coffee and fly around the world.... it's great fun.
Don't foget to leave  your Mr linky no and I'll get back to you..... eventually

  7. love the pinwheels you're making for that canvas, it's already fab...and I totally get that whilst you're doing everything for everyone else, your own stuff really slides down the list! And just to set the record straight...the daylight bulb WAS in my lamp when I took the wonky colour picture, it always is. The other bulb on my desk today is a £10 halogen 'daylight' version and although tried, never used because it's not as good as the blue bulb!

  8. Super project, perfect colour combo and so effective! Are those yoyos the same as Suffolk Puffs? Nice to see you doing something for yourself after doing so much for LillyBo too!

  12. Oh wow Janet, that wall hanging is lush! The colours are beautiful and making all those yoyos is a labour of love. Hope you managed to miss this week's dose of snow - we had a fair bit on Monday but the sun is shining now. Happy Wednesday. :o)

  34. Hi Janet,

    Wow - love the yo yo wall hanging. I like your rendition of the wallpaper. One time I made my aunt a yo yo vest. I don't think I have the pattern any longer.

    Thanks for visiting me already!!
