The other day I did a post about there being so much hate in the world at the moment and from what I’ve seen since then, it doesn’t seem to be that much better.

I know I have people close to me that are very loving and supportive and for that I really am very thankful. You do make things that bit easier but unfortunately there is still lots of hate in the world and everybody needs to do their bit in fighting that darkness and negativity. Everyone has that light inside that can shine brightly and dispel the darkness. At times it can feel tough to tap into that light and shine bright but remember it’s there and all it takes it to smile and to send out love and the darkness will be blasted away.

We all need reminding sometimes that we have that love and that light inside. But just remember you are loved, you are worth it, you and your ideas are valued.

Please send love, light and compassion into the world however you can.

So on to the last few weeks:

Tangling, tiles and other bits.

Here are the tiles:

Over the last few weeks it has been Hobby Makers 1st birthday and on that day Sandra was on launching a birthday book with some printed pages that could be added to to make cards. Here are the two cards I made and sent picture of to Sandra for the show:

I made them into anniversary cards because last week it was mum and dads golden wedding anniversary. So one of those cards was from me and the other I did for Mason to give.

Sticking with tangling there have also been some impromptu tangling sessions one is on a page from a note book and the other is on a post it note:

I’ve done a few more blocks on the tangling quilt, and I’ve finally started to add colour too.

Sticking with sewing I have made a new strap for my knitting bag.

Because it’s made from rainbow fabric it was pretty mind bending doing the top stitching watching the fabric go through the machine. The colours were just changing and flowing from one into the next. It was almost hypnotic.

I’ve nearly finished knitting the unicorn for Lucy

It’s still in bits at the moment, it’s a unicorn in waiting. So next job now is to sew it up and sort out the mane. So after that I’ll get back to my hoodie.

I’ve made a few cards too:

Something that happened the other day while I was at knitting. The Flying Scotsman was on the East Lancs Railway. I’m not really into trains and don’t really know anything about them. I have heard of the Flying Scotsman before and I know it’s a famous train. No idea why though but I did take a picture of it. So here it is if you like that sort of thing:

There have probably been some other crafty bits and other things going on but I can’t really remember any of it.

Please share your love and your light with everyone you come in contact with. I’ll leave it there.

Love and light.
