My creative space



I am joining in with Thursday's My Creative Space at Kootoyoo.

From left:

  • Innocent bystander

  • Machine embroidery thread

What craft do we call this? Macrame? Tatting? Embroidery? How about a-little-something-I-whipped-up-when-my-mum-and-dad-were-sick-for-5-days?

Bargy is very proud of his Gutterman Sulky embellished Intel Man. And since this craft project kept him quiet (without involving matches, knives or the cat) I chose to ignore the fact that metres of my beautiful new thread were being unwound.

Thank you for all your kind well wishes. Its good to be back on deck. There may even be a little craft again soon. Just after I have untangled a bit of thread ...

Thank you very much Kirsty for hosting My Creative Space. Its great fun seeing what everyone is doing. To see who else is showing their creative space (or to join in), head over here.

    (Or as we who have them call them, a Bachelor of Playdough...)
