my creative space . . .

Pattern (c) Tweed Delights 2007

More work on that Gallery 'consignment' order - but I will be pretty much finished by the weekend. Here's a pic of my 'tweedie' dinosaurs being cut out - I'm going to be sewing a few of them up today. I think this is really a crafter's dilemma when you are making multitudes of the same item (in my book FIVE is a multitude!!).

It has to be done sometimes, and I think you just have to get your head down and get on with it! It is satisfying though when they're done and I must make a point of going in to the Gallery shop next week to see how my 'tweedies' look in their little bundles!

Outside, my 'creative space' looks pretty good this morning - a view out the back . . .

. . . and a view out the front . . .

The plan is to schedule in a nice bracing walk later on today, so I'd better get my skates on and get 'tweedying' and 'tidying' - the former, of course, being the preferable option!!

More lovely creative types over here!

Cheerio an Drasda :)

Hi Alison
Love your open spaces - I can almost breathe all that fresh air!

Oh, to live in such a gorgeous landscape. I can imagine taking a walk in those surroundings really clears your head. It's gorgeous!

Oh, I so envy you the views you can enjoy from your windows. I'm not saying that mine is not a lovely country but I am completely and utterly and desperately in love with Great Britain - Scotland in particular - that I enjoy reading (and watching...) your posts so much more. Thanks for sharing!

I love where you live. Probably you are bored and/or used to it, but I love how much space there is, and the ocean there on the back, and the sheep......... aaaah.
Go back to work on your tweedies.

Haha! - maybe I should get a job with the local tourist board?? It is lovely and yes, I probably do take it for granted - a little bit :)! It is quite a nice 'creative space' tho :D

All the best with getting the job done. I wonder if I had those beautiful views getting anything done might be tricky. Look at all that space!
