Morning Everyone,
After a longer break than anticipated, this is the first reveal of my desk of 2020 for
What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday so Happy New Year to you all - may it be a happy, healthy and crafty one!
Predictably, I'm still scrapping December so there's the most recent batch of photographs and the contents of one of my homemade scrap kits taking centre stage. Making kits from old stash is the best way I've found yet to make some impact on my sizeable, but lovely, stash mountain. And can you see my fabulous new desk calendar - from Cindy, one of our crafty WOYWWers - love the cat! The rest of the stuff is just the usual mess. I try to keep it tidy but I'm as effective as Canute trying to push back the tide!
There's not been a lot of crafting going on here but I did finally finish this quilted Christmas tree cushion.
I did add some diamonte 'lights' - randomly on the ribbon trim - but it they don't show up on this photo. Here's a close up.
Still not too obvious but they look lovely in real life. Needless to say, it's now packed away - along with the trees and the decorations - until next December.
There's some new fabric on my sewing desk.
There was a sale and I couldn't resist these patterns - perfect for the little bookworms in the family and 4-year old Callum, who has a thing about globes and maps of the world - just like his daddy before him.
Now for the book bit. Not that I have a book this week but I thought I'd share my latest app, Libby.
After a trip to my local library, I'm now, through Libby able, to borrow audiobooks -
free! All that's needed is a library card and password - it's so easy. It's also possible to borrow e-books through this app which can be sent to Kindle if preferred. I've now discovered a huge collection of books - both new and older ones - that I'm able to 'borrow' for a couple of weeks at a time. That's more than long enough for me to 'read' any book.
That's it from me this week. I'm off now to see what
Julia and our fellow deskers have been showing us today.
Take care everyone and have a great week ahead.
