Hello all. Hope you've had a good week filled with smiles....mine has but I seem to have taken no photos :-)....I just must have been enjoying myself too much. I have been really busy with sewing and that always makes me smile especially as now I'm feeling a lot better and can now enjoy it.

WOYWW....
Hello all and a very happy Wednesday to you all. It's been a beautiful sunny week here in Shrewsbury and I'm in my summer tops....life is good.. I've been rather busier than last week but haven't had time for creative fun.
I have...
- Shortened 2 men's trousers
- Shortened 2 men's shirts
- Shortened the sleeves on a man's shirt
- Shortened the length on 4 men's T shirt/shirts
- Repaired 2 seams on a white linen top
- Shortened the sleeves on a lady's blouse
- Shortened a lined jumpsuit to be worn at a wedding and steamed it
- and I'm in the middle of shortening the 6 hems on this beautiful prom dress...

This week's smiles.....week 409
Here we are at another catch up with our Friday smiles. It's been a week of slow recovery from the bugs we have had for what seems like weeks. I think we are getting there...we have stopped running temperatures but the energy levels still need topping up.
We have the boys this weekend so I may have more smiles for next Friday but Theo managed to finish the ferris wheel he had been making using the K'nex. It was really tricky to make but he persevered and was so chuffed with the finished article.
Our garden continues to make us smile...the flowers keep blooming in every corner.

WOYWW....
Hello all. I'm sorry I was out of action last Wednesday with Flu/cold. Both hubby and I have been really rough on and off for a month or more and last week we were as bad as it had been....coughing lots and running really high temps. We tested negating for Covid but it felt pretty much the same. It's been an awful bug and I'm hoping it's on it's way out now. There have been so many folk around here suffering the same and it leaves you good for nothing so we had to listen to our bodies and sleep it off. If you read my Friday post you will also see I had a health scare too but thankfully the results came back normal and no further appointments/tests were needed....phew!!
On my desk today are the latest army of frogs, now finished and handed over to the Harry Johnson Charity, to give out the the children newly diagnosed with cancer....I've now made 58 and it makes me rather sad to think that there are so many children needing them but it's good to do my bit.
