Weekly WIPs

Today I played with wood on my really cool bandsaw
which broke AGAIN so its not that cool
Luckily I have a handy Scroll saw laying around
AND the warranty for the not very cool band saw

so with my wood that was scavenged out of the waste bin at the woodworking club
I made it so that my wooden letters would stand. I probably could have used a handsaw. I have a multitude of them but that's not as fun
and I cut some pretty paper I bought to go on the front

I thought some antique-iness might look cool
but then I didn't so I changed it
I sanded the cradles that I finished last Nov
and gave them their first coat.
I cant wait to make little mattresses and blankets.

I cut lots of fabric ready to be sewn. These are a batch of trolley inserts.

This is the pattern I lost but then found for a bag I am making which P kindly did the embroidery for.I am going to seriously surprise her by finishing it within 1 month of her giving me 6 months to finish it

These will all be finished by Friday and hopefully I will have a new band saw by then. A cooler one!
Now I am off to finish my socks.
Take care!
