Quilter, and book fiend
Lucky I picked up lunch at Josie's in Pontypridd Market this morning, needed an lemergency dash to rescue my sister's Sainsbury delivery as she was stuck in her doctor's surgery.

Well I can show you these fabulous pencils from @workersgallery.bsky.social because they are for ME, but not the rest of my Christmas shopping I'm afraid, secret Santa and all that.

Well the ☔☔☔ and my book arrived together, perfect timing and an exceptional bow.

I do love my garden trolley, not much I can't shift with it, turns me into superwoman ⚡. Why have I never given it a name?

The usual wonderful and inspiring visit to @workersgallery.bsky.social but I keep thinking these beautiful boards are too nice to dirty in my kitchen!

Lots of cold, wet sections, bliss.

Last weekly commitment finished, now to list all the things I want to do in the garden, and stitch in the workroom by September. Exhausted already!

Having trouble putting this book down @storyvillebooks.bsky.social one of my best purchases yet I think. @masterwoodchip.bsky.social I don't think I've ever really properly appreciated my beautiful chair 🪑.

I finally managed to catch the fabulous @melaniehonebone.bsky.social exhibition at @workersgallery.bsky.social, now where to hang this delightful memory of my childhood. Amazing visit as always, the 🌎 put to rights, and (probably) every subject under the 🌞 discussed. ❤️

Perfect Saturday morning, 2 new books from @storyvillebooks.bsky.social (great book fair) and lunch from Josie's in The Market Quarter Pontypridd.

And our theme at the After School Drop In today, is The Rain Forest. Frog races up the tree to follow 🐸🐸🐸.

Everyone should have a place they can visit where you find the perfect gift (and packaging), cards that beg to be sent to friends, put the 🌎 to rights and enjoy energizing conversations. Thank you @workersgallery.bsky.social .

Josie's Patisserie getting in the ❤️ mood with the napkins this morning. Lovely gingery "vitamin boost" after Pilates this morning.

There's buying "things" and buying a "treasure". Thrilled to collect my new book-stand from @workersgallery.bsky.social this morning, beautifully made by @masterwoodchip.bsky.social. It will hold some of the lovely books bought for me by a special friend ❤️.

Made it through the snow to take a photo, and we even had a Blessing of the Chalk this year, and coloured chalk to take away to bless our homes.

After a sad end to 2024, the new year so far has brought unexpected but very welcome visitors. Today the inspiring Gayle and Chris @workersgallery.bsky.social bringing gifts ,(thank you) and taking home something from my To Get Done (by someone else) List.
