We're back

We lost our internet connection for a couple of days, which has been more than a little frustrating, but with a very helpful engineer, a new radio card and upgraded board software we are back. I put the computer time to good use and have made a few gifts. I have jotted a few more in my journal will have to be a busy bee.



The cafetaire was made using the Japanese folding technique



Using Judith's suggestion, I fashioned the jotter and pen holder using thick card from packaging



Similarly the tissue box, in fact our neighbour came round and decided he wanted it to take away with him, hmmm note to self (or journal) make another for him.



These beaded napkin rings were very quick to make but jazzed the napkins up quite nicely








The hexi placemats have been one of those projects that you take along with you when you have time on your hands away from home, you know appointments and such, then Thursday I pieced them and backed them. Will have to find something else to take with me. I am still wondering what to do for the challenge, hopefully something will come to me (g)
