Well after giving my excuses earlier I settled down for a night in and then only remembered about the craft at 21.15 when Tom sent me a text. How could I just forget?
So here are the results of the craft challenge. The aim was to complete 3 craft projects by yesterday. Only two people took me up on the challenge - Jo and Sue - that’s my mum. I can assure you that Jo and Sue did complete 3 projects but I only have the photographic evidence for 2 projects each, though I think actually Sue’s (mum’s) rolls might count for more than 1 project as there are 3 of them.
In no particular order (there are no winners here….)
Sue


Sue would like to present some fancy bread and a patchwork cushion. This is no ordinary bread as it contains herbs from her garden, obviously winning extra points as herb growing is a craft in itself. Credit is also gained as the cushion was made as a present - she is not even keeping it!
Jo


Jo also gets extra points because how on earth do you make things with metal? Silver at that. That takes skill. There is obviously more than one invitation so extra points go to the amount of units in this project.
Me



I probably lose a few points for doing only one of the original projects on my list. However I think I make up for it in the red bag as this includes a zipped pocket, 5 panels, velcro and a popper. I also gain points because I actually made 2 of the book bags (brown canvas with pale green paint) and Mira - one of these is on its way to you.
I am having a craft break for a little while. It all became a bit too much like work with a deadline…however I have 3 new bags and I managed to use 2 of them today.
Well done.
