It is a long time since I joined in on Wednesday, so don't all collapse with shock. This is not really my desk, just one that I share every two weeks with some good friends at Bromsgrove Parchers.
You can see my bit close to this end of the table. The messy bit. We meet to share our addiction to Groovi and everything to do with parchment craft, not to mention a lot of chat and sharing of ideas.
This year has been chaotic with a lot of driving up and down the country's motorways, from Kent to North Yorkshire, all to do with crafting apart from one trip to West Bay in Dorset to meet up with three school friends for our yearly get together.
I do remember that Julia likes us to keep our posts short so I will end here and look forward to read in some of your posts this week.

Ahhh! West Bay ... Some lovely memories that name brings back!
Love that parchment work, always looks so delicate and I love those Hot air balloons.
Have a great week

Maggie, it's so lovely to see you back on the desks. Wow, those parchment pieces are amazing, the detail is quite stunning - I can see why you enjoy doing that sort of craft so much. I enjoy following your activities on FB, you have been everywhere this year. What fun!

Goodmorning Maggie, glad to see you and OHMY... that's some other sort of crafting you do! Parchment, I tried it once but it's not my cup of tea, I love what you do with it! Happy woyww and a big hug from Holland. Marit #19
Love the name Bromsgrove Parchers, Maggie - somehow it sounds thirsty work lol lol! As for the beautiful projects you’ve “parched,” well, they are fabulous! Lovely detail and subtle colouring. I love parchment work but would never have the patience for it, I don’t think. Our own WOYWW Margaret came to visit me a few months ago and showed me her work and I was amazed at its delicacy and intricacy. What fun you must have had, and also with your school friends’ annual meet-up. Thank you for your visit, and yes, it’s been another busy week, hence the delay in replying, for which I apologise. Each week I determine to do less and each week I seem to fail... Been very exhausted recently which should tell me something! I made more bread rolls on Friday and I totally agree with you about all the chemicals in bought bread - we owe it to the health of the next generation to be providing real food, and I am totally horrified at the lack of basic knowledge most young people have these days on nutrition and good basic cooking, and even the ability to recognise a humble potato!!!

Happy belated WOYWW,
