........... for a give-away!! I have completed 100 posts so it is as good an excuse as any I can think of!!
First though, I must finish off a couple of commissions, but after the weekend I will knuckle down to making a little something - I already have a picture in my brain!!
In the meantime, I have been doing a little bit of basketwork on the side and I share the results below:
Now I have to get back to my commission work - aim is to get them finished by Friday night!! We'll see how I go with that one!
Enjoy the rest of the week everyone and I hope the weather is being kind to you wherever you are!
I never tire of seeing your gorgeous baskets. I love the weave you used on the one on the right. They are equally lovely though!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your centipostary.
ReplyDeleteBeing the lucky recipient of one of your pigeon carriers, I won't enter the give away but wish everyone Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteIt was spring here at 10.00 am but took a decided wintery turn by 10.30 am when that blustery southerly wind blew in!
Oh Sus - you can enter the giveaway when it is final - the pigeon carrier is NOT the giveaway. The giveaway is only in my brain at the moment - so maybe by the end of next week I will have something to show!
DeleteI agree about the weather. But I think it is all my fault because I was commenting how we haven't had our August winds yet - and within the hour the wind came up! Sorry!!
Enjoy your day. Hugs....
Haha, so it's your doing, bringing on the August wind?? Very clever of you I must say ;) No my dear, I won't enter the give away, I have so much of your lovely basketware I should let someone else have that pleasure. Love to all!!
DeleteCatherine stole my comment....lol! I too like the weave of the basket on the right. Beautiful work as always.
ReplyDeleteHi Lidi! I will be happy to be a part of WHATEVER is still lurking in your brain! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteHere on the southwest coast of Canada, the weather has been Blue Skies non stop since the first week of July! It is , however not as hot which is Just Fine with me. Too hot usually gives me a blistering headache!
