This week I have been mostly
Making flowers(practising)
I'm still at a WIP stage with my easy flower.
Here are this weeks coffee shop flower progress.
Napkin for the back ground, original! not;-)
Organising.......aka clear out
A whole lot of flogging re-cycling and converting has gone on in my home this weekend.
Not a spring clean but an autumn one. I just seem to always have so much crap hanging around, So a lot of frogging has gone on.
A big recycler/ pull apart re use. I'm never precious, if I did not like it the 1st time then I can reuse it the second time
I even handed one of my "hand made by me" to the charity shop donation bag.
Four bags this month!, when I said I was sorting, I really went for it. Funny thing is the longer you hold on to your old stuff the harder to get rid off......
Just one more wear/in this case its T shirt fabric for my rag bags so I currently cutting them that way I will not have the one more wear syndrome that I seem to have adopted.
Gino dress 2007
Converted
The straps I decided to loose/cut off
well unpick........
(Slightly small on the top part) but the skirt fitted me fine So a conversion was necessary.

Elastic
I re-crocheted a waist band and added two layers of elastic and now I have a wearable skirt to add to my this year winter wardrobe.
It's a little Odd Molly/which is cool as I don't have 3000kr to buy one so my own will be even better.

Moondogs Mention

Art cafe in England/he offers free promoting for up and coming artist. It's his own shop/not a chain live music and just a cool arty place to hang out in.
I'm just giving him a little ad, he needs people in buying the coffee, so if you are in Reading just once this week give your coffee local a miss and pop along to Moondogs.
