2024 - No Craft Spending - I WILL bust my stash and make pretty things!!!!!

I have been AWOL as work was very busy since the 2nd week in December and into January, got a horrible virus, fully recovered now. Work has quietened down now, so I have time to craft and post again.  I have been reading along and enjoyed looking at everyone's makes.  Made an Easter wreath with everything I had in my craft room.  The small circles are curtain rings covered in ribbon and the ducks etc are stuck on with my hot glue gun ditto the eggs.

Been very lazy but have got my dressmakers dummy out to put to use, will make my life very much better. Looked at my list again of things I could/should be making. In my defence I have been sorting the yard out as growing season is galloping towards us.

Aint that the truth. 
i am trying my best to get focused on some crafts and inside jobs at the minute but I know realistically when this weather decides to give us here in wales a nice few days that I will be out in the garden making my veg patch dog proof as they ate a fair bit of my grown things last year and then it will be weeding, building, planting, thinning etc for the next few months so Im also trying to find a nice chair to use in the garden that I can sit in and craft so I can enjoy it and some sunshine!

@suzeesu2000 lovely colour scheme for your bedding. They go beautifully 
@AlwaysAllie I love your woodwork. 
@Florenceem more lovely cards 😀

Ive been a bit slow lately but I have actually finished something. I've made a Christmas table mat - I couldn't think of another project 🤪. Don't look too closely at the free motion quilting as it's very uneven but I'm sure when it's on a table no-one will notice.

Happy crafting xx

AlwaysAllie thank you. I love that table centrepiece.

@plumduff55 love your centrepiece! Very inspiring, I might have a go with the little stash of Christmas fabrics I have. 

Nothing to report here- once my freshly plastered and finally dried wall is painted this weekend, I might feel motivated to do something.

I’ve been extremely lazy and haven’t crafted this week. I’ve been family tree -ing. Been doing DH and my families since 1996. Gone back to 1250 on one line and just getting that far on another. Feel like I am getting to know some of our ancestors as I like to find out about them, not just the dates.

AlwaysAllie - more great wood makes.
plumduff55 - love the Christmas mat.
I have been extremely bad - spent quite a bit on craft supplies! I have 2 parcels on the way.
Made 8 cards today.
