been a bit slack.....

with my posts but things have been a bit hectic & exciting will fill you in later......Had a quick nip into my local charity shop this morning and got all these gems for a £5....(trunk aquired from freecycle on Sun Thanks henlady)



Charity



I love the clock its ticking away now waiting for its place in the scheme of things...



Then there is my new stash...OMG how much wool & its mostly from the 60's & 70's I just love the labels. Thanks Trudy & Trudy's mum for stashing all this wool for all these years then passing it onto me.... (sorry about the blur am definately going to look into buying a new camera so suggestions very welcome)

Wool



I have already sorted it all out and have 2 big bags to pass on as I'll never get round to using it all for a while so best to share my fortune!!



Then I decided to have a shift about to accomodate a new set of drawers (more later) and I dragged this old sofa out of my studio.



Sofa



It needs completely stripping & recovering from scratch and I am hoping to do an upholstery course next year so I decided a bit of a cover up was needed for now..with these fabrics

pin them on and pop to the loo only to find this on my return....honestly Merlin!
