Morning Sylvia. I trust the funeral will be a time when you can properly say goodbye, despite not being within your church.Great things made this week - well done... but do tell - what is a zine? Sorry for my ignorance!
Take care. Stay safe. God bless.

Hi Sylvia, I hope the funeral goes well, despite these difficult times and the fact it won't be in your own church.

It's a weird time, the run up to a parent's funeral but even more so in these crazy days. I hope it goes as well as it can Sylvia, sending you massive hugs and lots of love. I'm glad that crafting has helped you, I know it did me after my mum passed, keeping the hands busy helps soothe the mind.

So sorry that you have had to wait this long for your mother's services. Our would has changed so much and I don't think it will ever be back to the way it was. Love all your creations and am sending hugs to you my friend~!
Dear Sylvia, how lovely to see you! I wonder if the stresses have lifted a little now that the funeral has been decided. I really hope it has and that has helped your energised feeling! My poor Mama is receiving end of life care and I’m willing her not to pass during this lockdown phase.
I LOVE the Zine and button gifts for your granddaughter, oh those tags are delicious, what a marvellous thing to do for her. Love on every page!
Afternoon Syliva.
I believe that a loss is filling a huge amount of time in your life and I am sorry for your loss. I believe the "dead" is not dead but still live, just in another shape than as a human! I hope you will be in a more "normal" condition soon. The sorrow will still be there thought but will be easier to tackle down the road.
I love your desk and creativity.
Thank you so much for sharing!
Happy WOYWW

I hope the funeral goes as well as possible and is a real celebration of her life. I love zine and the button fold out. Happy WOYWW. Take care and stay safe. With love & God Bless, Caro xxx (#34)
Loving your busy desk and your crafty delights. Hope the funeral goes okay we ended up having a non attended funeral for my father as I just didn't want to risk the family getting together at such a difficult time. Wishing you a very happy and creative woyww, Angela x20x
Aww hope the funeral goes okay - such horrible times to have to wait. Sending my love xx Never seen a button book before - that's so cute! Lovely card too. So sorry I am late this week - had a big tidy up yesterday and ran out of time. Have a good week . Soojay #27
My thoughts are with you at this sad time...
I love your two makes - especially the button fold out! I may have to borrow that idea!
Stay well, keep safe...

Oh bless you - what a long time you have had to wait - I do hope all goes well for the funeral service. Thinking of you. Lovely crafty activities but not sure what a "zine" is. xx Jo #16
Fabulous Zine and button element. I was surprised to see real buttons at the ends, I was thinking it was card circles, clever idea. You said you number the zine so she could put it back together, so it’s not connected in the middle then? Very pretty and the addition of extra tags a lovely idea. X Angela #38
I hope your mum's funeral went OK, Sylvia. So hard during these difficult lockdown days. We watched my aunt's funeral online a few weeks ago, with only my cousins and one of their kids in attendance - the best that they could do but compared with the funerals of the others of that generation (my uncle, and my parents) with packed churches full of family and friends, it was a rather sorry little affair. You sound as if you have been struggling a bit of late, and I wish you all the best, and hope things will look up for you once we can return to some sort of normality.
Sorry for the late visit - I seem to have got caught up with a lot of other stuff this week!
Happy belated WOYWW,
