Plans for Saturday
I have a lot to do tomorrow - OH has gone fishing and so I am getting stuck into the bedroom big time. I wanted him out the way in the nicest possible sense as a lot of the stuff that is in the bedroom needs sorting and re-organising and to do that I have to make a mess and use the computer room where he normally hangs out so I should be able to get a wriggle on. If I were to do it when he was around it would just be moan moan moan. He does not do mess. So its better that he is elsewhere whilst I get stuck in. However it means an early start so I shall not be long before I go to bed. I really need to break the back so to speak whilst he is out of the way and once this room is sorted quite a lot of clutter elsewhere can be homed. Some of it is my mum's stuff, but there is a heck of a lot of craft stuff as well and you sort of forget what you have and do not have. I also have some clothes that need sorting out and I will probably end up sending them to the local Charity shop.
I am still having technical difficulties with blogger not being able to load photographs and I am wondering if it is something to do with the fact that I have changed to Windows 10. I cannot find the basic settings and have also got problems getting on to Facebook so many apologies - hopefully it will get sorted shortly.
So far I have found a load of Christmas decorations I had forgotten I had including some to make. Felt stockings and ornaments and also some fabric mega stockings that need stitching and lining. I have had the panels for a few years so it would be nice if I can start to get them done. There are also some wreath panels, an advent calendar, some tablemat panels. But first of all I Need to find the thread I bought the other week. Its in a safe place somewhere its just I cannot lay my hands on them (I bought three double reels and a zip came to about £20 - do any of you know of good source of sewing thread at a reasonable price. Would be interested to hear.. You never get chance round here to get bored there is always something to do and if you sit still for long you will soon be set on..
I also need to get some red and green buttons to make some felt button ornaments in the shapes of stars and hearts and maybe a stocking or two. That sort of thing can be worked as a small project for the evenings during the week but adds some home made charm to the tree. I think a visit to the stall on the market might be in order.
Right nighty night make sure the beg bugs don't bite - catch you sometime tomorrow.

Hope you have a good postive day with your sort out, once its done your mind can rest a bit, then put your feet up with a bit of crafting, sewing thread I always go for Guttermans not the cheapest but its good quality, I would just look on line :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you have a really busy day ahead of you. I love having a really good sort out love fluffy x
ReplyDeleteHi Dawn. Got quite a bit done in the end. Trouble is I am my own worst enemy very good at beating myself up. I too prefer Guttermans thread but just wondered whether on your travels you had come across another source. Will have to have a shifty once I get a few minutes. Hope you are well.

Hi Fluffy
ReplyDeleteI love it when everything is nice and tidy and I can find things again. I do like some sort of order although I am not anal about it. Half the fun is finding stuff I had forgotten about. Work in Progress pile has grown somewhat will really need to get this sorted.
Hope you are keeping well.
