Right, here goes attempt no. 2.  I tried posting from my phone yesterday as the pics I wanted were on there and I didn't know how to get them onto my laptop. Anyhoo, after my phone did that whirling downloading/uploading thing for over n1 1/2 hrs I just shut it down. I have just benn fiddling with the connection lead thingy and I really rather think I have managed to get my pics from phone to laptop-Wee Hee!!!!!!......So, here goes X (that's my fingers crossed)

After a few too many manic weeks of creating for my stall, I spent a very slow, long  weekend sat behind my wares (with as many fag breaks thrown in as I could wangle, and some hooking too). Being such a spreader I had to pay for 2 stalls, so I'm rather disappointed that I didn't manage to cover my stall costs. There never seems to be any rhyme nor reason as to why the same venue can work one time and not the next? A girl has to keep on trying though

So.....after manic, followed by slow and uneventful, both of which are really rather tiring, I spent my day off work yesterday in front of Beatrice (my trusty old french burner) catching up on Kirstie's Vintage Home, Grand Designs and George Clarkes Amazing Spaces, and hooking a cushion order. Amazing spaces holds a particular interest for me as we own 4 vintage vans, two which are rented out, and two for ourselves, take a peep at www.cutecaravans.co.uk/. Wow!!!!!, what amazing things he did with his van. I oh so loved the drop down side and swing out kitchen.

Anyway, time for a couple of stall pics (they ain't great as I took them, my trusty photo man seemed to be out of action over the weekend)



yep, both tables were mine
 
 


I seem to have an overload of cushions





and now a few pics of some of my creations during the manic weeks

and now I should get back to more creating, I've booked a last minute stall in my local town on Sunday
