Tis Done Now - woyww

“TIS DONE NOW”

Good morning desk hoppers, here’s the embroidery hoop I was working on last week.  Not often I can post a finished project haha.


Looking round my studio room (so called by my lovely hubby) My eyes fell up on some pieces I stitched together a few years ago when I did an online course with embroiderer Karen Ruane.  


and I’ve decided to work back into them by adding words and I’m going to attach them to hangers.  The little flowery thing isn’t really a hanger it was something I found for a £1 in the garden centre and rather liked the look of.


Once the pieces are finished and on the wall I’ll show you a picture.  This is the first piece of three.  All done from imagination and random pieces of vintage cloth and lace.


So dear friends that’s where you will find me today as my 16 year old VW Beetle is having her repairs done to get her through the MOT.  Looking at the weather though I’m going to take advantage of a nice walk on the moors as well.


Hope you all have a happy creative week

Dyeing to show you - woyww


This is what the weekend is for - playing out.


A super Sunday spent learning how to dye threads 


Then using them to create an embroidery


What I’ve not said is that there was also a lot of chatting, laughing, drinking of tea and eating cake going on as well


Of course after an exhaustingly busy day there had to be a trip to the pub for tea.

Another fabulous workshop over in Brighouse, Yorkshire

Kicking up those leaves - WOYWW


Come on Autumn let’s see how your beautiful colours 
and textures can inspire us.




It’s a fabulous time of year to get outside, kick up those leaves and let nature influence your creating, your cooking and how you dress. 
I still wear frocks but layer up with coloured tights and cardigans. Mind you I’m living with a brolly constantly in my hand at the moment, we are having so much rain (not good for the hair)



Hope you’ve released your inner child and kicked up a few leaves and stomped in the puddles haha.

What’s on your Workdesk Wednesday


Sorry I’m AWOL again, we are at our caravan finishing off what has been a busy month with lots of celebrating.


I’m just going to leave you with some pics of my workroom that is ready for me to come back to and settle into as the days grow shorter and we feel the need for cosy warmth and lamplight.  


My winter boots and opaque tights are back on and brolly is at the ready for what looks like a rainy Lake District week.



I’m meeting up with some Instagram friends today so it won’t matter what the weathers doing because we will be to busy chatting and laughing I’m sure.


Have a great week fellowdesk-snoopers.  
See you next week.  Lynn x x x
