Packing And Printing.
***Don't forget the Book Challenge is still on, for your chance to win a copy of Stitch Savvy***
Despite a very trying (how dramatic am I!!) week of packing up the house, I have at least made some major progress with our stuff- the loft is all but packed up and organised, and there are about 30 boxes randomly placed around the house with our things all ready to go (and only about another 50 to go). The homeless or not homeless question hasn't actually been answered yet, as a small bone was thrown our way today that the 25th might be possible for our purchase- but who knows, yesterday it was definitively not happening until the 8th of April.
I did however find some time yesterday to start with some Hand Printing, as the date for the swap is fast approaching (it's the same as moving day, what kind of idiot would agree to that *cough*me*), so I got in a bit of practice with some white cotton, and random ideas that came into my head. This is only done using standard paper, I'll be using freezer paper for the real deal. I haven't actually decided on any patterns so far, but at least the cogs are whirring now (as much as they ever do).
Don't forget to make sure you're here on Sunday for my Birthday giveaway, and the Meet My Machine Blog Hop, there is a list of the other people who will be hopping with me below, and some other giveaways on their relevant days.

Cannot believe you signed up for a swap when you were moving house!
ReplyDeleteYay 30 boxes done - that is almost half and those first few are the hardest (not sure if they are but here's to some positive thinking!!!). And yay for the Handprinted swap!! I'll be printing mine this weekend I think (if the fabric arrives!).
ReplyDeleteGood luck for the move....and I've not printed mine yet either!
ReplyDeleteA swap and a move at the same time! You are one mad woman!!! Good luck. Di x
ReplyDeleteOH MAN! This is how I discover your birthday is on Sunday?! I am not prepared for tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteIn unrelated matters, how do you get involved in a blog hop?
You are very brave or mad for the move and swap clash!!!
ReplyDeleteI have every thing ....that does NOT impede normal life ... crossed that you get everything organised x
ReplyDeleteYou know I hope all goes well and you get to move in on time with no homeless days, I'm not sure where you are finding the time to craft though. lol
ReplyDeleteWhat Susan said! I love those little crosses.
