Perfect place for inspiration. Even tea and a biscuit are on the desk. :D

I did, one or two things. I also got rid of a few things :shock: :shock: . It's got a lovely "new start" sort of feeling :-)

totally fablous, what a wonderful craft room for you. How brilliant it will be when completed & you can relax & do more creating :) Love the sarong with elephants. Have you another to go the other side or will you have a different colour/type of curtain?

could do with your organisation skills at the moment. Since grands been back at school have been trying to sort out stash kits in between other things. saw Izzi had Periwinkle Cottage & thought I had that one years back - wondering what became of it decided to check a cupboard I do not go in very often. mistake!!. found it, good thing is I had it packed flat in box with other things not done much but started so goodness only knows why i put it to one side. guess i was something else I wanted to make for family leading up to Christmas when you get busy with the things needed to be made, so it got packed carefully & then forgotten. had in plastic box with it Maria Diaz chart of a pretty cottage with garden. also a few pieces of Aida. Now have to sort out other bits & pieces.

Things I don't want will go to a friend where we used to live who has recently taken over as manageress, running small animal rescue place & they need funds to modernise/alter the holding buildings. 3 craft shops in that area has closed so any stitching, knitting items are snatched up & helps swell funds. A shame these places close when owners retire. larger place is way out in countryside now people who do not have cars cannot get fresh supplies unless via internet. Saying that unless things are in a sald it is not as cheap as people think, ends of rolls of fabrics are good but other things seem to be expensive. DH took me a few times but often came out with nothing so we stopped going there.

Sorry have gone a bit after a small lapses in posting :oops: :roll:

Look forward to seeing completion Mabel - just love your rainbow boex, of course :lol: rainbow colours are so bright & cheerful.

You sound pretty organised to me, nannyrainbow (I shouldn't be surprised you like those storage towers :-) )

There is another sarong, but it won't become a curtain; in that bookcase I've stored things which can stand the light, like beads and gems, wrapped kits and books.
