my creative space(s) . . .

This old raggedy ruck-sack is the one I've used in the past to pack my 'essentials' for craft-fairs, and the 'tweedie' ball is embroidered with the musical event I'm attending with my 'tweedie' wares this weekend. The timing of this event is not the best - 2 days after the kids start school and not having allowed myself a huge amount of time to prepare, but what the heck, if nothing else there might be some good music to listen to and a good variety of customers to boot!

Other Half is taking the boys along, so 'muggins' is going along with her wares - who knows, I might even sell something!

Here's my 'embroidery lesson' creative space from the beginning of the week: (yes, that's an embroidered button you can just about see - with a bumblebee on it - I got really carried away!)

. . . and another more detailed pic:

I had a ball learning all the embroidery stitches and I'm really glad I took some time out to learn them -mission complete! (my sun is not yet finished, hence the gaps at the base)

Today, the boys are back in school and I'm going to chill out a bit from crafting (I'm all packed up and ready for the fair) and try not to worry too much about 'teenage son' in his new school - yikes, he'll be fine I keep telling him and myself! 'Little S' is going back to the same classroom, school, school teacher - so no worries there.

Wish me luck for my craft-fair - I might need it! I'm told that the 'seating arrangements' involve bales of straw! - Oh, by heck, what have I let myself in for!! :)

Cheery Bye!

Added 5 minutes later: well I might be tempted to make just one little 'tweedie' teddy or two - ooops, Craft Addict! There's more of us lurking over here!
