The Mock Turtle

Baa those are so sweet!

Absley your flowers are gorgeous.

My snood is a disaster. I've sewn up the ends and it barely fits over my head twice which was the plan.
I was going to do an edge border to try and neaten it up but honestly I can't be bothered now so I'm going to abandon it and start something else.

I love the paper flowers.

Those paper flowers are so lovely.

The paper flowers look like a painting! Very pretty.

100 to choose from and she wanted (poor) Frida Kahlo.

Now you've said it's Frida I can see it.

I nearly threw it out the window trying to do the eyes/eyebrows.

T’other one wanted a Scottie dog - much easier!

I started cutting out for a couple of practice blocks* for Tom’s minecraft quilt. So fiddly, but nothing compared with the instructions for the sword, which has 89 pieces for a 12.5” block! Assuming the blocks work, I’ll make them into a drawstring bag for him.

* a TNT block and a Steve block.

He will love it. And the Scott dog is v cute.

All the tiny things.

These are so lovely Baa. How are your hands this steady?!

I sold my first thing on etsy to someone I don't know! I'm thrilled. She sent such a lovely message too

I don't know, but I think my eyes are disintegrating

Well done! That's excellent on selling to strangers!

Stranger sale!

Baa, all your tiny wee things are so cute!

Ooo, what did you sell?

A set of three tea light holders, a bit like the ones Pip bought from me a few weeks ago, but in another colour. I've sold some other bits through etsy and on FB (including to a couple of other turtles, who are very kind) but this is the first to a stranger!

That’s great, smal!

Cutting accurately to an eighth of an inch obviously is not my strength today. I’m not happy with the errors on these, but I think they might make a drawstring bag (one each side and a green band above and below).

That’s great news smal! You must be chuffed.

I know nothing of Minecraft but they look good rosy.

Elvis got her mug cosy finally, and I was messing about with squares so a doll has a blanket.

My thumb is no longer bloody and my buttons arrived so I might aim to finish my cardigan this weekend.

OMG!
