WIP, a few finishes and some nice news!

Oh what a crazy week, with all the sales, promotions and giveaways my inbox has been bombarded with fellow blogger posts like never before! But I am happy to report I didn't do any shopping, but spent my time actively finishing my WIPs (and a few new projects of course!)

So a little status report: The bench is painted and varnished although not yet dried... oh well what can I expect in this weather! The side table is all painted and husband and I have decided what bits are being decoupaged... looking good! And of course I had to start a few projects, but as they are all Christmas related they need to be finished this week! 

Unfortunately I was so busy at making that I have not written a single post just yet! So want a little sneak peak?

And of course, I could not stop myself to start a new blanket as soon as I got back from Argentina. I still had a bag full of yarn that was donated early this year, and voila! There are already 25 squares made... aiming to make 30 and get the blanket ready to send soon.

So on to the nice news... I am happy to tell you that I received an email from Manos en Acción yesterday and it mentioned that the blankets were really useful to many people that lots almost everything during the last flooding in the area where they work. They absolutely loved them! So again thank you all that helped this fantastic donation happen!

And finally, I have made it to the top 10 at Sew Lux Fabrics guest curator contest (here) with my Calm Bundle! If I win I get to be featured for one month in their blog. It would be great to get to do it, and hopefully reach out to new readers! If you like my bundle, please follow the link and vote for me in the poll on the left top corner of the blog.


Linking up to W.I.P. Wednesday at Freshly Pieced and looking forward to see what other bloggers have been up to this week.

  3. I love the picture of the squares all stacked up like that. It's a piece of art work all on its own.
