Hello all. Here we are at another Wednesday desk share with our creative friends. It's been a different sort of week for me...
Monday I was supposed to have a customer wanting me to make her 2 Memory bears having recently lost her Mum but she messaged me to say on sorting out her Mum's clothing she decided she wasn't ready to have them made just yet....the time for these things has to be right.
This meant I had a day to find something else to do so...
...I decided to sort out one of my thread drawers...the blue/green one. My threads tend to get rather mixed up and tangled and finding the one I need becomes difficult.
The bottom pic is my now tidy drawer....doesn't it look fab and yes I do have a lot but you can guarantee I wont have the right colour for the next job that comes through my door.
Yesterday I had to look at a prom dress to see if it was possible to reduce it from a size 12 down to a size 8....it had a pretty beaded band around the bodice and there was no way of taking it in as much as was needed because of it sadly.
So, yet again I was looking for something to do to use my time wisely...

ouch poor finger! shame you weren't able to sort the prom dress. Your cottons look very organised now - hope they stay like that! Happy WOYWW Helen #1
Lovely to catch up last night and those little key rings look even better in real life. You will have to show me your tidy drawers next time I call 🤣x x Jo 🌈
Those threads are amazing, I still say it would make a great jigsaw! You made good use out of your freed up time, the little keyrings are fun and great for using up odds and ends of fabric. Poor old finger though, ouch!
Hugs LLJ 2 xx
Poor finger, bet you wont do that again. There's always something else to be done even when you thought the day was planned out. Happy woyww, Angela x9x
I hope your finger feels better soon! I love all your keyrings and I’m sure they’ll sell well. Your range of cottons is amazing, of course you have to find the right one for all your work.
Happy WOYWW

Oh ouch! Nothing worse than a proper blade cut on a finger end…takes ages to stop being sensitive and as you say, is a very bloody experience. I love the patchwork key ring tabs, Jan gave me one a few years ago, they make finding your keys in a bag so much easier; we often comment at how the simplest things are so utterly useful. I realise you need them all and I don’t, and that you will use most of them at some time or other and I wouldn’t, but I want your threads….the joy of opening a draw to that sight in every colour way is good for the soul!
It’s amazing how those cuts hurt! Did you say ouch or something else I wonder! Hugs Angela #12
Oh WOW the threads what a super bliss photo for me, I so love colour. Pretty keyrings and sorry to hear of your finger episode, hope it heals fast. Hugs Bj#3
Ouch - hope your finger is better soon Annie. That's a lovely organised thread drawer. The keyrings look great. Stay safe and happy belated WOYWW. Sarah
