WOYWW....

 Hello all.  I was missing in action last week.  I had come back from a few days away on Tuesday but had no desk/contents to show you because it had been a weekend of making memories with our family....with no crafting being done.

This week I've been playing catch up with a long queue of customers...it's lovely to see how much I'm missed when I'm not here :-)  

I started off my week making this lovely bear from a much loved Grandma's favourite jumper and fleece waistcoat....it's really cuddly and when my customer saw it she ordered another one....

...this one had the panels on the opposite sides and with a cream ribbon to be a little different.

My next job was to make 4 lovely bears with a Grandad's favourite clothes.....each one had to have a panel of two of the items of clothing and then to have other panels added to them from the bag full of clothes she brought and they all had to have different coloured ribbons.  

On top of all those bears I have also...

• Shortened a pair of trousers for my hubby
• Shortened 2 pair of jeans
• Shortened 3 hems on a bridesmaid dress and took it up on the shoulders.
• Replaced a concealed zip on a little dress and
• Took another dress up un the straps.

I have a queue of jobs waiting to be done today...

• I have to take a zip out of a double sleeping bag and sew part of it up at the bottom [I really do get asked to do all sorts of jobs]
• I have 2 pair of trousers to shorten
• I have to move a button on a pair of shorts and 
• I have a pair of shorts to shorten

Plus I have another 3 memory bears coming at some point....not many dull moments for me is there?

I hope you're all enjoying the Olympics...I'm watching all I can when I get a spare minute....aren't they wonderful?

Hugs,

Annie x
