Happy New Year!

 
Happy New Year!


I hadn't intended to blog today but I notice a few of you have blogged favourite pieces you have made in 2012 in your New Year postings, and it makes for some wonderful eye candy! So I thought before I went to bed I would have a little look back over my blog. What an uncreative year it was for me! I can't say it was completely because of practical hurdles. Once we were settled in our temporary accommodation I quickly got some crafting bits around me, helped by my very kind friends, but I couldn't get myself into the right frame of mind. I really loved the normality of having people over to craft again and thank you so much those of you who came over as it meant so much that you didn't abandon me. But all I really did was have a crafting dabble and a chat as my head was full of building problems and decisions and dealing with the insurance company and worry and there didn't seem to be space for any creative thought. So really nothing clever was made in the whole of 2012. So instead of showing you anything very artistic, I thought I would show you when I think I might have got my sense of humour back:-



As Zoe quipped, they were going to a Black Tie and Tails party!

Looking forward to being much more creative in 2013 - hope it's a good one for you all!

  2. I bet you are being hard on yourself, Lucy, but yes I can imagine that dealing with your eventful 2012 did divert you from more pleasurable pursuits. You wouldn't know it from your fabulous mermen. Here's to a brilliant 2013!
