woyww - che cosa è sulla vostra scrivania?

Which I'm told by google translates into What's on your workdesk - Oh I forgot about the Wednesday!


I have loads of chickens to knit for various teachers.  Smallest is leaving pre-school to start "big" school.  Small is moving to another class and his teacher is retiring.  I have two cakes to make.  One for a friend who looked after my house whilst I was away.  Another to make for a friend who secured me Adele tickets. 

I've been trying to make a felt cupcake for a while and I had a go last night.  This is my first effort.  I had to put it in a silicone case as the felt case I made looked like a hat.



I made a cake for playgroup this week - just a  quick one - it's supposed to be a sun on the top!



Rosie the Pig is finally finished - I am quite pleased with her.





Snort snort

We've been on holiday in Italy (hence the italian title!) and since we came back I have no idea what day it is. Anyway, here are some photos of my holiday:-

 Wish I was drinking that right now


 Mountains, cypress trees
ahhhhhhhh

 Lucca - top of a tower - boys loved it


Lucca's circular square (now that makes no sense)


Small & Smallest enjoying the Gelato 


and this is where I want to be with my knitting and sewing bag and my glass of wine


Maybe next year ..........................

Oh your italian scenes are gorgeous...I know what you mean - I have a large G&T with my name on it, next to a deckchair, hundreds of miles away!! Meanwhile though, love Rosie Pig, she's so sweet. Good luck with the chickens!

Love the shot of your soon-to-be used knitting materials.... everything on view is amazing and beautiful..... If someone told me I had to knit in order to be in that setting with a glass of wine, I'd do it! Thanks for visiting me...
