This week I have been doing some sewing. I can’t claim to have any great skill but I’m nonetheless pleased with what I’ve made.
The kernel of an idea emerged over a year ago. My partner, at https://myteatowels.wordpress.com/ has a Guinness World Record for the largest individual collection of tea towels. I was idly internet scrolling one day when I found a YouTube video of a woman who was making tote bags from tea towels.
“Have you got any duplicates,” I asked Ms Tea Towels and explained what I’d just seen. We watched the video together and got excited.
Having been offered the chance to sell My Books at a Christmas Market for the charity I volunteer with in a few weeks, it occurred to me that I could offer a ‘book bag’ as a little extra.
We had a lot of fun making these and they will also be turning up in Christmas parcels.
What are you pleased with this week?
Nice

It’s a good job I’ve got a lot of duplicates or even triplicates that I haven’t got rid of. You have been a busy beeBarbara

What a lovely post, Liz. Well done to you both; they look amazing.
This week, I have listened to some sound advice and tried to keep my mind full of positive thoughts. So, mainly brain training I guess. My partner and I have also filled some dates in the diary with something positive to do every week, leading up to Christmas. 🎄
