WOYWW #144

I thought I would just post my photo of my desk as the day unfolded this week. Julia, our leader of the trip around the desks of the world, has created such a wonderful Wednesday experience, that I can no longer manage to call at each one any more. The phenomenon has grown  that big. So, I just got up this morning, took my time and this photo:

There is a DT piece under way which will get more thought throughout today. I managed to get a couple of pencil holders from Tesco for my distress markers, there's a mucky piece of kitchen roll behind my tiny drawer of shells. I use gold dabber a lot so instead of storing it with the rest of them have now decided to leave it out. Apart from that, everything is the same.
I would just like to share a masterpiece with you though this week. It's this:

My friend, Sylvia, in Devon, has created another patchwork quilt. It seems to have taken just a couple of weeks because she can make them so quickly. This one is not all hand sewn this time and she found it to be a different challenge having hand-made the previous delights. She is now looking for other patchwork projects as all her beds now have a quilt. Any suggestions??
Right, I will try and get round more desks that I managed last week, so please bear with me.

That quilt is an amazing piece of work, and I would think your friend is very talented. I know what you mean about leaving frequently used items out on your desk. The only trouble is that if I do that, it will get lost under the rest of the detritis that develops. Yours is so clean and tidy, though. Have a good week. xx Maggie #8
