Since last joining in on the desks I have been continuing my mission to halve the 'treasures' in my eaves and I must say it's been going very well. I still can't get across my studio floor to my desk but that's because it's covered in re-packed boxes, all beautifully labelled and waiting to go back in to the eaves (back ache allowing!). I have more than achieved my goal of halving it, and I have uncovered some long lost friends that need a little attention!
My dear Looby Loo was knitted for me by mum and went everywhere with me! One of my earliest memories is settling down with her to watch Andy Pandy on Watch with Mother (anyone remember that?). I started to give her a gentle wash and as I did so several tiny moth holes turned into rather large gaping and frayed holes. She has been sitting by my armchair waiting to be mended for most of the week but to be honest I'm feeling rather nervous about how to go about it. The Repair Shop's Teddy Bear ladies make it look so easy!!
