Now onto todays offering, proof that I am being good and taking it easy. There is only one new piece here (small, white, lower left) so I am cheating a bit, but to satisfy the ''sit down and put your leg up brigade'' I have been fiddling with easy non challenging stuff. In preparation for the Makeydo I have been mounting these little samples, ready to put into clear bags. I had an e-mail from my good friend Jodie with a few tips on selling at fairs. One of them was to have a basket or similar full of little things that people could have a good rummage around in so these are probably going to fit that purpose, safe and secure inside polythene of course.
Now you would think that with all this time off work stretching ahead of me that big plans would be taking shape.......WRONG!! My mind has gone blank, it is so frustrating. AAAAAAAAAARGH!So for the moment, whilst I am waiting for the big idea/revelation I am picking up this. So you don't get bored of looking at it I am showing you a different angle, the back! Quite brave of me I reckon, please don't judge me too harshly.
One really exciting thing I have done since I have been incapacitated is order some printed tape for my work. There will be two types, more info and images when I get it, I can't wait! Now I am off to see if I can conjour up a brainstorm. x

varma tankar !!
hopefully that is warm thoughts in Swedish, if its something rude instead, PLEASE DELETE!!
Love the samples :-)
I couldn't possibly delete it. it sounds amazing, just how I feel!!
Hope you get relief at once and recover soon and respect strictly all the recomendations - even those horse tablets :(
Your samplers are an inspiration!
Take care and don't forget those support stocking!

Is it cellulitis? If so take my advice and BE CAREFUL!
Its a good idea to have the 'little things' at a craft fair. You could have some big spectacular expensive NFS pieces to attract attention.Good luck.
Hopefully with the tablets, there will be a speedy recovery. Good use of the imposed time off work
Thank goodness you found out the true problem! Hope you are all healed up lickity-split. The sample cards look wonderful!
Glad you asked for a second opinion and are being treated correctly. Still...keep that leg elevated =-) and don't force the brain .... you will find something to work on....I'm sure.
Love the white on white.
Take very good care of yourself because a bacterial infection is serious, big time.
OH what fun they all will have rooting around in your samples basket. I envy them. Those little pieces are just gems! Glad to hear they have a solution for your leg. If its a bacterial infection your pills will probably start helping within two days. Hope the pain goes away and STAYS away and I wish you a good journey Karen!
Thinking of you and wishing you much fun Bunny-hopping your way around Sweden. Take care of yourself Karen, we all want you properly better!
sorry about your leg issues and hoping all clears up soon. love the back of things as you know, sometimes they are the front to me. the samples are great.
I've been dying to see the back of your pieces! You must have read my mind.
The little samples are very attractive and will surely appeal to buyers. How about little bags with small squares of silk and a few fabric and thread oddments oddments too? It's the kind of thing I always buy-hoping the genius of the seller will rub off.
Take care.
The little pieces are lovely,you could frame one as an example for your stall.
Make sure your resting!
Get well soon Karen!
Surgical stocking huh? Mmmmmmmm, will be looking out for it re-appearing behind a cut work window when you are all better. (which I do trust will be very very soon) xxx
Your creations are awesome.
I hope the horse tabs will do the trick and get you well in time for your trip!!
The tip you got for the fair is good, I always try to have a basket with something small to dig a around in too!
Love the gingham flowers!
Do you speak any Swedish btw? That's my mother-tongue, I belong to a Swedish-speaking minority in Finland.
Trevlig resa!
Gorgeous work!
