WOYWW 900

 

Wow it is lovely to be joining you again on this great day. Congratulations to the person who had the idea of this fantastic site and all who have contributed week in week out.

I have looked back and my first post was 6^th April 2016.

I haven´t been well over the past 18 months but read WOYWW every Wednesday and haven´t joined you because all my get up and go has gone. I have tried knitting, crocheting, but apart from one crocheted blanket have had nothing on my work desk. I don´t even have a work desk any more as all my crafty things are downstairs, and I now live upstairs.

Last week I got someone to bring my portable sewing machine upstairs so I could put some new ruffle on my curtains. Oh, the excitement, it did take me over ten minutes to thread the needle even with the help of a needle threader! (I am still waiting for my 2^nd cataract op).

I have never met any of you and probably never will as I live in Spain and never return to the UK anymore. The nearest I have been to you all was when (during covid I think) a zoom meeting was arranged instead of a crop. It was great to put faces to names.

I still have the ATC cards traded during the years, no photo though as they are pinned up in my sewing room downstairs and that is out of bounds to me. By order of my daughter I am not allowed downstairs! My treasured gift was from Jan and it is used nearly every day, not sure of its age now. Thank you Jan.

So a happy 900 edition, congratulations to all and here´s to the 1000 in the year 2028! If my maths serves me correctly. Gosh that will be one big celebration.

Now to see if I remember how to link you, bear with me please.
