WOYWW 149

Just a quickie this morning for the weekly snoop around the crafting world engineered by Julia. 

As you can see not much on the desk apart from the sewing machine and some fabric. Yesterday and today is all about patchwork! I had these strips of fabric for ages, first in a box and then after they'd been sewn into strips on my noticeboard.  This week I am finally going to make them into a scrappy shabby quilt top. I might even be daring and go and get batting on Friday from my friendly quilt shop otherwise it will get folded up and put in a box for another couple of months!

Mind you the sun is shining so I might be tempted outside for a spot of gardening or possibly snoozing ....

EDITED: and here's the completed quilt top. I laid it out on the bed to measure it up, when I got back from getting the tape measure, look what I found on it looking cute!

Ok, so I've been reading all your WOYWW entries for the past couple of months and I've thought about it and then Wednesday disappeared or it was too dark to take a photo either on Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning because I get up so blinkin early.  But now we are in March and the mornings are lighter I thought - why not, I can quickly take a snap on my phone, go to work and quickly write a post.

So that's what I'm doing.

On my desk this week you will see:

• two rolls of kitchen paper for dealing with inky spraying activity
• some gesso
• some oil pastels
• PaperArtsy stamps
• some chipboard shapes from the Artist Trading Post (they are well good and were in the sale) 
• some felt
• some fabric
• a canvas
• some Distress Stains
• some Archival ink
• some paint 
• some paint brushes  

Under the table in her basket is a cat, but I didn't take a photo! You'll have to wait and see what I'm actually making, maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow.
