Morning all. Thank you for looking after us last month Natalie @NOfkantsCurios. Thank you Max @MaxPringJewellery for hosting for May.

May already! Will soon be half way through the year, Christmas in July, then the countdown to the festive season. Convinced days, weeks, months are shorter than they used to be.

Good morning, thanks for looking after us last month natalie @NOfkantsCurios and to you max @MaxPringJewellery for taking it on this month.

Back with a listing later but first we are off to the ‘stately car boot’ which is at a lovely country house just down the road from us. It’s a big charity event and a bit posher than your average car boot so you never know what you’ll find.

Good morning
Thank you Max @MaxPringJewellery for taking up the reins again and thanks to Natalie @NOfkantsCurios for looking after us last month.
Had a lazy day yesterday mostly sitting in the garden but when my daughter arrived I made the mistake of joining her walking the dog. Thought my foot was sufficiently recovered - foot thought otherwise - not quite back to square 1 but definitely a regression :frowning:
Just looked at the weather forecast - looks like rain today which is probably a good thing - will keep me inside and I might get on with something.
Another card today

Good morning all! That you Maxine for taking the reins this month! You’re a star!

A stately car boot sound fantastic, hope you find some amazing bargains Mel @aquilacrafts

My listing for today was a bit tricky to photograph, the yarn is a very pale blue and has a slight sparkle to it, not sure if the sparkle really shows in the photos.

Good morning everyone. Happy May :blush:. My grandson is on his way over. I swear it’s because he ‘knows’ grandad built his birthday present for next week when he turns 1 and we’ve nowhere to hide it :joy:. We’ve bought him a little trike that starts off like a buggy that adults control but as he grows it can be adapted and will become a proper trike that he can pedal himself.

Morning everyone. I had no chance to join in here, or to create anything while I was away. Some days we were on the go from 5am until midnight plus.
So I’m hoping thay May will be back to normal (my version).
My broken foot is healing, so all us good.

Nothing new from me, but I have a head full of ideas that I’m itching to start.

A relist…
