Wondering ..

Wondering - How to explain to my bloke that these are facings not sleeves for his next ironing foray!



Wondering - When I will start to care about my house garden again. It has got into such a mess and I am really unmotivated about it which I don't like.



Wondering - How much more allotment fruit we will get this season. 4.5Kg of strawberries this year. Blackcurrants next.



Wondering - Why I like to craft so much and what is it a substitute for?


What are you wondering?

  1. Loved the ironing foray, send him this way. I am wondering if I could get the bathroom finished before our daughter and the boys visit next week????

  4. If you put in a few hand stitches to catch the sleeve facings to the side seams and shoulder/neck seams inside the garment - so it won't show at all, it will keep the facing tucked away and in place.

    1. That is exactly what I did in the end but I thought it was worth a chuckle first!

  5. Wondering if I will have enough yarn to finish (Mavis) from the latest The Knitter magazine. Will have to do a back and a sleeve and then decide.

  6. Ooh, thought-provoking. I think I might craft as a slight distraction from cleaning...although I don't hate cleaning, I just don't jump at the opportunity to do it. :)

  7. I enjoy making because it makes me happy. I am not an enthusiastic gardener but plan to pull some weeds next week.

    I am wondering if I will manage to wash all the kids stuff and pack it again for tomorrow.... just got back from Cornwall. Not exactly world changing but there you go :-)

    Looking for a measuring tape to measure the mustard jumper for you. Will email you later. xx

    2. Then that got me wondering how many men have to do that scenario - not as many as women I shouldn't wonder. x

  10. I am wondering how you find the time to do all you do. I know you have explained it all before but it still is baffling to me. I am wondering if I will ever stop feeling so tired and of course I don't even want to go to wondering what crafting is a substitute for. Really what do other people do with their time?

  11. Crafting isn't a substitute for anything, it's feeds an essential primal need to make things and create with our hands. It's excellent therapy and is especially good for our mental health. That's what I tell myself anyway! I read something about that a few weeks ago, I'm sure it was in a highly respectable publication and not just a random site on the internet!
