    attacked the tip that is the craftroom today - it was such a mess I'm sure that's what was putting me off doing anything. And I found 4 cards I'd made - and lost! That's my usual 1 that was needed and 3 spares, lol.

    Tomorrow I'll get on with making some cat cards for Cats' Protection. Some of my ill gotten gains last week were for this, so that makes me feel a teeny weeny bit better.

    I do sell them - when anyone wants to buy them! I don't set out to sell them, but it happens, I have taken orders, but I'm always worried that they disappoint.
    I just enjoy making them and end up with surplus, which family get or which go to charities/school fundraisers and the like.

    I have cut the skirt. Managed to do that last week. Not managed to see if yet. Hoping my fella will go out walking tonight so I can do it then.

    I don't think it will take too long to sew.

    I have ordered the diary inserts for my Filofax yesterday - I need a proper diary for work - and wants going to try to print one as its too important to mess up and it has to be free from pretty pictures. Haha

    So the plan for this weekend is to sew. If it's dry I'll maybe get to the pallet. but who knows.

    All the cards look lovely. 😄

    So been busy. Haha but not very productive.

    Refilled Two fountain pens. Both parkers. I won't buy the extortionate cartridges so refill. Also they don't come in pink to my knowledge.

    Used a new cartridge in another pen.

    I have completed a note book - and then decorated another for my travellers note book.

    I've finished off 6 things. So up to 197 - 500. Still a way to go. Haha

    I have started to take apart the pallets - it's going to be hard going as I have little upper body strength and those nails are in hard.
