Well folks, it's a desk with a difference from me this week...so far....so I will show you what I'm up to....
I've been white lining roads.
Ploughing fields....as you do!
This morning I'm planning a garden....flowers and vegetables of course :-)
What am I up to?...
....I'm in the process of making a play mat for the Grandchildren for when they come to Nanny Annie's.
Jo knit some Peter Rabbit characters for Theo to play with so of course they need Mr McGregor's garden to play on....as they say watch this space. I hope to be able to show you a pic of the finished mat by next week but we will see just how busy I get. I am expecting at least 3 memory bears to make before the end of the week so this little project will be fitting in and around paid sewing :-)
If you leave me a little message to say you've been I will do my best to pop over to yours to see what you've been up to this week.
Hugs,
Annie x
The play mat sounds interesting and I am sure it will soon become a much loved toy to come out when they are visiting you.
ReplyDeleteHope you get some work in but also that it is not too much so you can wow us with the mat net week.
