It’s not until you start doing things again that you realise how rotten
you felt when you were poorly.
I feel like I’m entering the sunshine of life again. Yippee.
We had a treat of lunch out on Sunday. Returning to normal at last.
This week I’ve started a new textile online course with Jayne Emerson Textile Artist.
I can’t tell you how much fun we have at our zoom meetings. I definitely found my
tribe with the members of our No Rules Textile Society. A definite positive to come out
of the pandemic, along with Julia and you lovely Wednesday Workdesk folk.
I love online learning

Wowser, I like that bowl you made. I am sure I once bought some of that water soluble stuff but never used it. Now where did I put it?
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling a bit better, take each day as it comes.

Wow, that bowl is beautiful, it reminds me of a Tiffany glass lampshade with the mixed colours. Great job! I’m so pleased you’re feeling better, you did have a rough time, going out for lunch is a good sign!

Your textile course is fab - I love the bowl. I do remember using water soluble stuff a few years ago - clever stuff and fun to see the transformation. Love your outfits! xx Jo

The bowl is beautiful, and I love your yellow outfit :)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness your bowl is fabulous. I have been reading about water soluble fabric lately and making new fabric from scraps. My machine isn’t suitable for machine embroidery , I did enjoy it when I was at college. Happy WOYWW Angela #2
ReplyDeleteWow, that bowl is beautiful - I love the stained glass effect, very clever and effective. I'm so glad you are on the mend now - it sounds like you've had a rough time of it. Your stylish outfits are fabulous and the textile course sounds like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week,

WOw, who would have realised what your beautiful bowl is made of Lynn. So glad to hear you are feeling fitter. Enjoy the new course. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #5
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are entering the sunshine of life again. Even if I'm not ill very often - touch wood, I hope I haven't jeopardized that now - I know exactly what you mean. Your new prompt for the No Rules Textile Society sounds quite daunting to me, but once again you've achieved your goal and what a lovely bowl it is too! Just wow! xxx
ReplyDeleteThat bowl is amazing.
ReplyDeleteHi , another late one for me but really wanted to get round. Pleased to hear you're feeling better. Beautiful bowl. Sending hugs, Angela x16x
ReplyDeleteSo pleased you're feeling better, Lynn, and that you're still being pampered with tea and biscuits from the wandering welder. The bowl you made is fantastic. It looks wonderful there on your shelf. I agree with you, we're never too old to learn! Have a fabulous week. Elizabeth x #28
ReplyDeletePleased to hear that you are feeling much better Lynn. I tried one of those bowls in a quilting class years ago.vit did not turn out as beautiful as yours!
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW!

Yes! I love your bowl, who would have thoght it would turn out so fabulous! Glad you are feeling better!Happy WOYWW Stay safe ((Lyn)) #1
ReplyDeleteOh goody, you’re feeling a bit stronger and a bit more up to it, that’s grand. I love the bowl, especially that you used all those little bits to make a whole, the stitch stitch stitch is fab, looks so good. So incidentally, does the linen piece in the frame behind the bowl. It would take me hours to look around your room!
