WOYWW . Happy Anniversary everyone.

Wahoo I'm pleased to report I am back. My eye now feels much better [apart from the need for ointment still] and I am able to see sufficiently to do all the things I love doing.

Twiglet and I had a fun day Tuesday yesterday because of it being bank holiday Monday but no one had told my customers...I think they had missed me! I had 11 phone calls and as many customers in between them. Needless to say my rail is now full and it may take me a little time to get round all my fellow bloggers but I will call in on you all at some point...I promise.




Because it's such a special week I'm keeping this blog short but thought you all might like to see my latest pic now it's finished. Sorry the pic is a little blurred.







This is week WOYWW week 52 and Julia has challenged us to make a celebration piece to adorn our craft space with the acronym WOYWW somewhere on it. Rainbows are very special to me and I certainly consider the WOYWW group is like a pot of gold to both Twiglet and I so this is where I got my inspiration from and here it is.....



....Hope you like it.

Now please pop over to Julia's and join in the fun by calling in on the other bloggers to see what wonderful creations they have all made for the celebration.
