WHAT'S ON MY WORKDESK TODAY

 Today I can't show you what's on my desk properly because either my computer is acting up or my camera phone.  
I couldn't download the pictures I wanted.
 So instead here are the bargains I got in the charity shop yesterday.
An embroidered tablecloth for £1, an embroidered pillowcase for 50p and a roll of curtain hanging stuff that I can't remember the name of for £1.50 and four lacy mats for 50p. Oh yeh and a cardi for £1.
These are two hangings I made a couple of years ago 
and have just decided to finish off this week
 
 When I've decided what to do with the curtain roll stuff 
I will write it in my freebie brilliant ideas book
I'm off now to have another go at loading my photo's.
When i've had enough of that I will be popping around this weeks desks
at Julia's place.

  2. Love hour "Blooming Brilliant Ideas Book" what a smashing title. Great finds at the charity shop too - the tablecloths remind me of some of the things I have in a drawer that my auntie made years ago. Bless her.

  5. You do 'Pretty' so incredibly well - I always have an epic fail if I attempt anything layered and lacy!! Great charity finds too - no doubt you'll get inspiration from that book. Great title, btw!!

  12. I am doing a very quick whistle stop tour of my fav blogs in my lunch break today. It's pretty manic returning the bungalow to a little nearer normality for when our Dutch friends arrive tomorrow so please forgive me that it is such a quick visit.
    What wonderful charity shop finds Lynn and I love those wall hangings.
    Hugs,

  14. You do have blooming brilliant ideas! I am thinking when that book is ready, you should just publish it on Amazon--your things are so gorgeous. The stitching projects are in my tribe--I'm so inspired right now, I want to run home and stitch! Sandy Leigh #55
