 sorting cupboards and found some long lost treasure

 

Two skeins of hand spun still in the grease with a couple small balls of singles waiting to be plied. The spool is also full and ready to skein.

Evening has found me just sitting !!
                                        maybe some mindless knitting will calm the chaos. 
 I'm thinking a shawl ?


 I'm sure there's some more hand spun somewhere.



All of you enjoy your weekend. We are having lunch on Sunday with 5 of the Birthday people so far in 2012. The missing one is attending a friends wedding.   Terry

The Word

 

Yesterday I embraced the sorting boxes in the shed that became wet during a violent thunderstorm. Not my plan but I did find my wedding photos still dry and a book box full (of books) to be donated to the library.

Today I am embracing the sewing room. The view from the doorway messy but manageable I hear you say.

...........note the 2 chest of drawers have clothing not fabric easy             BUT WAIT

Behind those doors is the treasure about to be sorted, remembered and hopefully CULLED.

I shall report on my progress sometime soon until then  Terry

It has only taken 5 years of living in this house to get the garage so tidy. It's the first big clean and sort to sell our home . Up side less stuff to move.

Lots of  WORDS have been showing up in blogs. Blue Mountain Daisy with a tutorial link. Bumble Beans too .
I have been pondering the changes in my life and the causes. My word was a stoic view and I couldn't rally to do anything. But a bit of distance from the news about my knees offered the opportunity to rework the original word. A few moments during the week and this is the result  so far.

 The letters of my word are all jumbled up from some off beat continuous stitching. Go on GUESS. Let me know what you come up with. hint __ not all letters are upper case.

To Be Continued....
