What's on your work desk? Wednesday 463!

Morning everyone, I got up early this morning to carry on working on my white work rabbit, I managed about half an hour before little man woke up, typical, so I'm now sat in bed typing this up while he watches cartoons for a bit. Still at least I managed to get all the couched thread secured on the back just his whiskers left to stitch.



I've managed to make more progress on this piece by getting up early with hubby so I hope the box will be nearly/completed by the end of this week. Unfortunately it seems as though the ribbons I ordered have been lost in the post as they are yet to arrive even though they were sent First class 😞 I have to phone the supplier back today once the post has been and they will send some more out recorded so hopefully the embroidery will only be at a standstill for a day or so. I'm secretly hoping they turn up after some more have been sent so I have some to play with after the book is done, or to do a giveaway with on facebook/Instagram to gain more followers which I plan to do anyway. At least I hadn't cut the card for the exterior of the box and the lock so I still have things I can prepare while I wait and if I somehow manage to get all that done before the ribbons arrive I can make a start on the final box so no real harm done as I want to be finished with the making by the beginning of May so I have a big chunk of time (which I know will fly by) to get the rest of book written (I've written about a 5th but that's still 10K words!).

I hope you enjoyed reading my blog and hopefully I will have made finished the penultimate box by this time next week, depending on when the replacement ribbons arrive! You can also find me on Facebook and Instagram!  

Thanks for Visiting!

  7. This is such a beautiful bunny! There's nothing worse than waiting for supplies in the post. I hope your best case scenario happens!

  8. It can be so annoying when we are waiting on elements to complete our works especially when they get lost in transit. hope you do not have to wait too long for the replacements to arrive and you find the time you need to complete your beautiful work. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
    Creative wishes & Thank you for sharing WOYWW Tracey #13
