WOYWW #438


Welcome,  it's another Wednesday to share our work spaces, Julia at the STAMPING GROUND is our hostess with the mostess.   You can play along, visit anyone listed toward the bottom of her post. It's fun, lots of nice people with good ideas.

My desk
 a card for my sisters birthday

and a few different sized die cuts.  Can you guess what I plan to make from these?  I'll share the finished product next week.

I've also been sorting through my stash of Christmas papers, embellishments etc. So plan to have one side just for Christmas creations.  Hubby is in the corn fields for a few more days.  We have had 2 days of 45 mph winds and we have part of a tree down not too far from our house. But no farmer is complaining as it helps dry the product and so they are not getting docked in pay or having to dry it which costs lots of money for the electrical process of using the big dryers. Supper is in the crockpot, as one never knows when he'll call it quits for the night.

Thanks for stopping by, for all the nice comments last week.  May you and yours enjoy a great fall.

WOYWW # 437

Welcome, what a glorious fall week we have been blessed with.  I'd love to live somewhere, that is like this all year round.  Mid 70's, no wind and lovely sunshine.

It's another fly by Wednesday, the day a group of bloggers share their desks and projects they are enjoying time creating.  Ms. Julia is our hostess and you can find info on her blog the STAMPING GROUND.

This is the square fabric I showed a paper copy of last week,  but it is a (table cloth/shawl) with some black fringe on the edges,  The colors are so awesome, have to find a use for this.
Thank you for all the good wishes for my Mom. She is back at Assisted Living doing very well. This is a photo of her on the left and my sister who retired. Now spending the week with Baby girl Landry while her family takes a vacation.  So happy for her.
This is my desk for the week, finishing up a wedding card for Saturday's big event.
Her colors are Eggplant so I decorated the envelope
Now that's all for today, I need to get outdoors and clean up my flower beds, put hoses and other things in the garden shed.  I baked  all the squash from the garden and put it in the freezer yesterday. As well as the kale. So his garden is DONE, and I am a free woman !!!  Enjoy the things you love and Happy WOYWW.

WOYWW # 436

Welcome, another Wednesday that just flew by. Time to share our desks and Ms.Julia at the STAMPING GROUND has all the WOYWW info.  It's addicting.  And I am looking for MoJo.

My one long 8 ft table is separated into 2 work spaces.
 Sorted out the flower dies and have a space to start making extras.
The large paper flower display is a copy from an awesome old fabric piece I found. just love the colors.

It's been a busy/emotional week. Mother sprang her ankle so since no help was available at her assisted living she was sent to stay at the nursing home for therapy. Any thing out of her norm is upsetting as with dementia she gets very confused. Help Wanted everyplace you go. No one wants to work.

  Hubby has been trying to work steadily in the fields and all we have is small amounts of rain to make a 2 day wait. We were close to done in the fields last year at this time. Hardly a dent in harvest so far this year. He did some corn removal here at the farm so the cows/calves could be put out to graze on stalks and corn..only the tiny calf can clear the electric fence and has been out and about the road way. 

Thanks for visiting, have a wonderful week ahead

WOYWW #435

Good Morning,  It's another WOYWW....What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday  hosted by Julia at the STAMPING GROUND   First off, my heart goes out to all affected by by the tragedy in Las Vegas  Prayers to all with memories, injuries for loss of life with this horrific day.

My desk:


a few finds from the Used shop...wanted old sheet music to make some feathers, pieces of lace, my 1 inch "New" punch  and to the left a new deck of cards "Purple Hat Ladies"  Somehow I have a "Thing" for  Pretty or Fun Playing Cards.. I wish they kept the decks with a few missing so I would use them for the project in mind... I hate to break up a great deck for use of a few project cards.


 A card for Mom to give my sister for her retirement.. yes my younger sister is retiring after 39 years of being the City Clerk of Wesley, our hometown.  Her co -workers planned a great party for her last day. 
I made her a card but somewhere in the photo transfer it was eliminated...my photos would not load unless I made a delete of 8 photos and that must have been part of the issue.  I will check with her if I can retake and then share that project. 

Another September birthday card
and a few others posted on a previous post HERE  if you are interested.

Thanks for visiting, and enjoy a lovely week.
