I was going to show you that I haven't given up on the knitting yet
Then yesterday Postman Dave brought me a parcel
So after hanging the washing out
Tidying round the kitchen
Clearing my desk
I finally managed to open it
Inside it is a lovely creative project in a box
called This Hour of Mine by The Linen Garden
The idea is to give yourself some time to be creative.
You are given some guidelines but basically can create whatever
you like with its contents
You'll have to wait till next week to see any results
as I will be faffing about with all the treasures for a while haha.
In the meantime lets have a look at what everyone else is upto
over at Julia's place

Well looks like you have everything tidy and are ready to enjoy that kit. Will be fun to see the finished project. I like the colors. And your outdoors looks wonderful...green, I'm so ready for spring. Have a fun week #4
ReplyDeleteOh I saw the "this hour of mine" on a Facebook post this week and wondered what it was exactly. Thanks for sharing, looks like fun BJ#9
ReplyDeleteI love the colour shades you received in your package - looking forward to see what you create with it all :)
ReplyDeleteThat dresser in your kitchen is beautiful too - so beautifully filled :)
Have a wonderful Wednesday :)

Can imagine me just drooling over the contents of that box for ages. I don't sew but was tempted by some fat quarters in The Works of all places.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the journey through your day, and your home - really enjoyed how you set this post out - clever girl!
Hugs & Thanks for visiting me

ReplyDeleteTake care. God bless.#

What a lovely idea that parcel is. I aim to have at least an hour of being creative every day (don't always make it though). Plus I am working hard to lessen my huge box of fabric scraps....every time I use some it seems to fill again lol.
ReplyDeleteIt's a big day here today for our little fur baby....she's just gone for her first hair cut....and I'm missing her already. I plan to do a before and after post on Friday so keep a look out.
Hugs,

Awh lovely Milly. Will do. Annie xx
DeleteHehe! You're a lot more patient than me. If I'd have received a parcel like that I'd have thought "sod the housework!" and got stuck in!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fab idea. I can't wait to see what you come up with.
Love, love, love the outfit! xxx
For someone who rips all her birthday/Christmas presents open before the day I was extremely restrained. Xxx
DeleteThat's a great fun idea! You have far more discipline than I as I would have rushed to open it forgetting about the wash and tidying up! Diane #15
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful spot you live in.... it looks so serene. Can't wait to the results of your faffing around. It will be brilliant :)

You must have quite a lot of willpower, as I wouldn't have been able to wait to open the parcel. Would love to see what you do with it. Love the cheerful dress and cardie combo! xxx
ReplyDeleteThat box certainly contains lots of inspiration. I can never wait to open my parcels! Can't wait to see what you do with all the goodies. Sarah #25
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn, what beautiful photographs of your home and surroundings. Lovely scenery. What an interesting box, that should be fun. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #8 XxXx
ReplyDeletehow lovely - I'm waiting for Ma Factrice Sophie to arrive with my copper tape so I can get on with some soldering... but now I want a carton of fabric having seen yours (box envy) It looks likes the knitting is getting there despite the mundane and wonderful interruptions, see you next week, Dxxx 13
ReplyDeleteI love your post - seeing what you've been up to before opening that package. You must have a lot of willpower. Looks like you received some wonderful goodies. Hope you show us what you make.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW

I love your little blog "story"! So cute! Isn't it amazing how we put off what we really want to do until we get all the "chores" done first? Like dessert after dinner! LOL! I will look forward to see what you did with your lovely box of inspiration! Thanks for sharing! Lindart #39
ReplyDeleteOh I love your Not Dead Yet post, your style is just wonderful, I would love to be ale to put clothes together like that! Isn't it wonderful to be able to put washing on the line again.....and oooh....take your time, the box of treasures is definitely worth a few days of hours!
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW. I 'nearly' got our washing line out of the garage earlier this week, but definitely back to using the tumble dryer and heated airer again. We have a few days of rain/gales forecast. You really kept us on the edges of our seats waiting to see what was in the parcel. Gorgeous contents and I look forward to seeing what you do with it. The view from your craft table is amazing. Ali x #27
ReplyDeleteNo can't wait, want to see what you do with all those goodies. Have fun and a happy crafty woyww,

You're very patient, i would have opened the package as soon as i received it, Thx for your visit earlier, Vicky
ReplyDeletewhat a pretty box to receive - hope you have had fun since with the contents. I too would have opened it immediately! Helen #1
ReplyDeleteI would not have been able to do anything until that box was opened - aren't you strong willed! It looks like it's going to be a lot of fun using all those goodies, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with them. Thank you for popping over to my desk, I've really missed taking part for the last few weeks but am back to full power now!!
ReplyDeleteNow if that had been me I would have opened it before the washing and tidying up. You must be very disciplined. Enjoy your 'This Hour of mine' but I think it will be a lot longer than an hour. Anickoana #6
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and I'm looking forward to seeing what you make with your creative box. Dorlene #36
ReplyDeleteAlways exciting receiving packages...your pics are just lovely...thanks for sharing.
