Welcome to my blog

I hope you enjoy reading my posts, and please leave me a comment. I always enjoy reading them, and will try to visit you in return.

For security reasons for me and for you, I would appreciate it if you would leave your name on your comments.

You are welcome to copy any of my designs, as long as you do not take credit for them yourself. I am very happy for you to sell them. If I have used anyone else's design, I always try to give credit where it is due. If I have missed anything, please let me know and I will put things right.


This is intended to be mainly about my crafting stories, as a personal record of what I do. However, I interpret crafting quite widely, not just paper crafting but other things too. I have a butterfly mind and like to change from one thing to another depending on what I feel like on a given day - knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, cards, baking and several others, including my favourite right now, parchment, both traditional skills and Groovi, very relaxing and calming to do.

I have decided to put some structure into my blog so that each day will have something of a theme.
Monday- for Mindfulness; Tuesday - Tidy Up Day; Wednesday - What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday; Thursday - Technique and Tips; Friday - Finish Off Day; Saturday - Start Something New; Sunday - Anything Goes
These themes are not hard and fast and will be changed if I feel the need.

WOYWW 521 - Rather late today

Never mind being late today, I am still trying to catch up from last week.  My whole week is totally messed up this week.   Sorry if I did not get round to you last week and I will try to do better this time.


There are about 30 PTCs ( Parchment Trading Cards) here, all different.  I have removed two from the pile to be posted separately.  Otherwise, these will be going with me to Shrewsbury at the weekend.   I have enjoyed playing with these, using different techniques. 

I have also done two wedding/anniversary cards this week but I cannot show them for a few weeks until they have been delivered.  I still have two more wedding cards to do fairly urgently, so back to work now and stop procrastinating.  I have a plan!

I’m blown away, Maggie, you’re the Queen of Parchment, fancy making thirty that’s simply amazing in my books. Wonderfully exquisitely done!
I’m so glad you made it saw wonderful pickies at Jan’s place she shared some cracker pickies.
Very late at calling .. but happy belated WOYWW.
Thanks for sharing your desk, prayer hugs,
