What’ve I been up to for the last 2 weeks?
Tangling, knitting, card making, tile swapping, shopping trips and website renewing.
So let’s start with the knitting. I finished the first sock and I’ve started on the second. I’ve had to slow down though. My hands are that dry they have started to crack. There is a split at the end of my finger and it’s the one I use to push the needle down. But caking them with hand cream will get them back to normal soon.
Here is the first sock:
On to park card making. I finished off the card I was making to go with the flowers. It’s for a friend of the family’s 86th birthday. I think it looks good, what about you:
And if you look really carefully some tangling has even made it on to there as well.
I’ve also made 2 other cards. One of them I can’t share just yet. And the other is for a sad reason. Someone close to the family has had a bereavement.
So tangling and tile swapping. A few weeks ago Sandra set up the first Tile swap. She gave us a tangle that we had to include on a tile and the rest was up to us.
When we had done it we had to put it in an envelope and send it in. We had to include a stamped self addressed envelope so we could get someone’s tile back. Sandra put some picture up on Facebook of all the tiles that had been sent in and they looked awesome.
It’s great to see what other people have been doing.
Here is the tile I was sent:
It’s be a lady called Bernadette and I think it’s great. I think this was a great way of bringing people together. And the next swap session is tomorrow. So Sandra will give us another tangle and the rest is up to me. I think I’ll have to get some envelopes and stamps sorted though. I can’t keep stealing them of mum.
There is now a Sanntangle badge:
I got it a couple of weeks ago. Since I got it I’ve been saying I’m a real member of the tangle cult now. That’s just my twisted sense of humour though.
Here are the last few tangles I’ve done:
They’re my most recent tiles and am the feedback I’ve been getting from people on Facebook has been great and it gives me a little boost. And that’s quite important at the moment.
I’ve also been making some great new friends through Facebook as well. And been chatting with them and enjoying the contacts.
Shopping trips with my dad and my sister to BM to get junk food, Haribo, chocolate, crisps and stuff like that. I have to stock up my stash every now and then.
Renewing the website, I’ve done that too. So I’ve renewed it for another 3 years. That means you’ll have to put up with some more of my babbling.
Had an MS social zoom night, that went well and it gave me chance to talk to one of the members about anything and everything. I think we both helped each other and I said I’m alway here if you want to chat. That has been coming in my direction a lot lately. It’s from the new friends I’ve been making though crafting groups.
Anyway, I’m off to eat Haribo, finish watching The Nightmare Before Christmas. I’ve already watched Coco and that’s a nice film.
Enjoy what ever you’re up to, stay safe.
Love and light.
