Some people in the craft world really are awesome. That doesn’t feel right to say because it doesn’t feel like it goes far enough. They are awesomer than awesome.

I say this because Pauline Wheeler donated loads of crafty bits to me for the MS group. The next group social night in November is going to be a craft night making Christmas cards. There are all sorts of things in there from little books to ribbons. It will all come in handy next month. Thank you Pauline you awesomer than awesome lady.

There are plenty of other awesome people out there too. Another one has to be Sandra Rushton. She goes out of her way to help people and of course she created Sanntangle and the amazing community that has built around it. The group is so loving and supportive it’s unbelievable. If I’m not feeling that great or a little bit low just looking at the artwork and reading the comments always brightens things up. I’ve talked about it before, no idea where though but Sanntangle and Sandra are awesomer than awesome.

Major thing that has happened over the past couple of weeks was an in growing toe nail. Why is something so small so painful. I know I spend most of my time off my face on painkillers (prescription ones prescribed by a doctor)but that hurt like hell. It’s been niggling me for a couple of weeks but last week I tried to sort it out but it was one that beat me. So after spending a couple of day honking round more than normal with the extra added pain mum finally booked me in at a chiropodist.

If you can put up with feet that is one job where you can make money. For all of 5 minutes work he made £35. He sat me down cut off the offending edge of the nail, pulled it out and filed down the edge that was left. Job done.

Sticking with feet for a moment I did something stupid last week. I was in my craft room, moving a chair I was sat on. I stood up moved the chair and sat down. After sitting I only realised that the chair was on my foot. Stupid I know but it’s me what do you expect. Luckily I got away with a bit of a bruise on the end of one toe.

Other than that not much else really happened other than knitting, tangling and card making.

So here are my tiles:

I’ve figured out the swirly inky thing, used it on 2 of those tiles. Problem is I seem to be using it a lot on different projects.

Tile swap. I got a tile in the tile swap

It’s great isn’t it?

That tile came from a lady called Vera Turner. I love it. Here is the tile I did:

As per usual I sent it with a Letter:

Something went wrong somewhere with another ladies tile. She didn’t get one back. So I did another tile for her and she received it yesterday:

And here is the letter:

I finished a card this morning. It’s not for anyone in particular I just wanted to use one of the dies I have:

If you notice the swirly inky thing has been used again.no harm done and it looks good and I enjoyed doing it so it’s all good.

Knitting wise still on my octopus. So far I’ve done 7 legs so only 1 more to go and I’m thinking of Making a start on that later. It’s either that or go for a kip. Either way it’s fine.

So off now to either sleep or knit.

Love and light
