Ick, a definitely unproductive week this week. I was out on Friday night, but when I woke up on Saturday morning I had a pounding headache and blocked sinuses. I’ve now got a sore throat and my ear hurts *whine* Anywho, Saturday saw me cleaning out my freezer, doing the dishes and rearranging my fabric shelves. Naturally, what else do you do when you’re feeling like cr*p. On Sunday I tackled a commission for a bag, which I’ve not quite finished yet (ie, the turning gap is still a gap) but by the end of the wrestling match, I had about 5 pin gouges across both hands and arms which caused some concern to my colleagues on Monday morning! I did try to finish the fish from last week, but I’ve lost my big needle book with the needles with the big eyes and I can’t get the thick thread for the eyes through the ones I can find *sigh*
Finishes This Week:
None
In Progress This Week:
This is now 95% of an Aeroplane Bag (apologies for the blurry Instagram pic)
The fish are now stuffed, wow:
To Be Worked On This Week:
Recovering my health and sanity? Oh no, on Friday there’s another Christmas party…
I’m not even going to clog up the WIP Wednesday linky party with this!
Hope you are starting to feel better x
Oh no, get well! My middle child has the stomach flu. Tis the season!
Boo on pins! Next time, don't use pins — that'll show 'em. 😀
I know how you're feeling…..hoping you get much better soon….at least in time for going out Friday. And yes, sewing is a strangely dangerous hobby – I'm always pricking myself.
Hope this weekend is much better. Juliex
Hope you are much better by Friday so you can party.
Don't you hate it when you can't find what you're looking for and nothing else will substitute.
Sounds like you have a dose of the dreaded lurgy, or given that you cleaned out your freezer maybe it is something much worse 🙂
A good night out on Friday should kill you or cure you!
Oh no 🙁 Feeling yuck is the worst! Sounds like you better have a big night at the Christmas party and drown that lurgy – lol – not the finest medical advice!
I do hope that you recover faster than me – am on week 5! Ok…to the projects…I am still puzzled byt the fish…what are they for?
Ah Katy, hope you feel better soon! We just got over a couple of weeks of respiratory cr*p, and it was no fun!! Can't wait to see the bag and fishies in all their finished splendor. And.. btw.. I think you're a rock star for cleaning out the freezer while sick. I accomplished nothing at all!
I hope you feel better soon, I have just been working too hard to do any sewing.
Poor you :-(. The bag fabrics are a fab combo xx
Oh that's rubbish getting a sore throat … I know because mine was a little scratchy yesterday morning and is more yucky today ….. and I just heard that another crafty friend has one too …. is this something that's going round the crafty community? …. I am however happy to report that I haven't yet stood on the needle that I dropped from the pack you sent me (or sat onit , depending on whether it's on the floor or the sofa) …. sewing can be very dangerous, especially when you let a blind man loose with sharp objects! 😉
It takes me about a week to recover from a big night out – hope you feel better soon!
