Turning my frown upsidedown

In a bid to get over my frustration at yet another canceled date night due to someone in the family being sick and feverish (4th date cancelled in the past 2 months), I decided to soothe my anger by turning to my craft table.

  
I have been neglecting the sewing machine and craft table in the past couple of weeks due to other commitments, but today, it was the only thing that was going to make me happy.

I took some wool that I had felted previously, and got to work.

I used the neck of a turtleneck jumper which I had not felted, and sewed it onto the ends of square of blue striped wool

Then I made sausages










 

A quick dip into my Mum and Granny's collection lets me choose the perfect buttons

 

The end result is that even though I have no control over the bugs that invade my house, and the mistakes made with over the phone bookings, I can still create something that makes me smile, and makes the day so much better.

A big sorry to J and C who arranged baby sitters for tonight
