WOYWW (19 September 2012)

Another week has passed and here we all are showing off our crafting spaces to the world.  After last weeks mega tidy of Studio Calico kits, I rewarded myself with lots of scrapping; I have made 8 LO's over the past week plus got up to date with Shimelle's LSNED album apart from the photos which are somewhere in the post on their way to me.  
And the top of the expedit now all those boxes have gone and have been replaced by cropper hoppers look fantastic.  Just need to order some more so I can then tackle Sarah's Cards and Scrapagogo kits.
Next thought I would tackle my cross stitch stash.  Oh my are there lots of WIPs and plenty of FO waiting to be framed.  Of course you can't sort and not have a play, can you? 
I spent Sunday morning cross stitching and I thoroughly enjoyed it until I ended up in hospital in the afternoon which is where I am still.

Then Monday morning came.  How I forgot what lots of cross stitch does to my carpel tunnel!  When you are in that much pain you can't fasten your trouser button you know you have over done things.  This meant a very painful day but I am happy to say I am on the mend and have learnt my lesson.  Small amounts each day from now on.

This my crafty space today:


Pop on over to Julia to take a look at some other craft workspaces.

  9. Oh no hope you are feeling better soon - nice to see some crochet there I only taught myself how to crochet a couple of weeks ago (after about a year of trying!) and now have a lovely big bowl of flowers waiting for inspiration to strike. Thanks for sharing - Sunshine Girl No. 68

  11. Poor you Candace. Who knew crafting could be so risky! I bet this is the first WOYWW from a hospital table desk! Hope you are feeling better soon though I see from your balls of wool you can't keep a good crafter down!! Have a fun week and Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 102

  14. You know, people have no idea how hand-stitching, such as cross-stitching can require a bit of athletics in the hand. I know--I'm a cross-stitch-aholic! But as I've grown older, it's just not possible to c-s for hours and hours like I did in my thirties and forties. But, like you, I just can't give it up. I'm knitting today too! I do hope you recover and are happily stitching again very soon. Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #36
