WOYWW...

 Sorry I didn't join in the fun last week.  We had been contacted by a paramedic on the morning of Thursday 11th to say my hubby's brother had suddenly died and could we attend his 83 year wife.  My hubby is the executor for him and as he was a Civil Engineer and had been working the day before he died [Aged 76!] we now have to sort out his funeral/business etc....so there's lots to do and it doesn't leave a lot of time for creativity.

I have done my best to keep all my customers happy and have managed to do all their sewing and had an hour or so in my sewing room making these...


I had painted all the toppers a while ago and they had just sat on the shelf waiting to be finished so I used it as a bit of distraction therapy and am rather pleased with the results.


That's all from me for today.  I will do my best to call in on you asap but please forgive me if I fail this week.

Hugs,

Annie x

Oh my word Annie, what a horrible shock for you all. It's very sad, I bet your sister in law was immensely grateful that you were able to drop everything. The admin and logistics of the business alone will be all consuming for you both. Don't worry about WOYWW, we'll see you when we can and meantime send you strong vibes for the work to be done. Xxx
