If I can finger type - is it broken?

Well it seems I can still type with one finger!
Having cockled over and ended up on one of my (ample) buttocks 
(now bruised) in town today, I caught myself with my right hand as I fell.
To say it's painful is an understatement but I'm not convinced its broken - yet - 
Whilst I can't unscrew a wine bottle ( slight panic ~) with my right hand and neither could I use pliers earlier, I can prod keys,
so will sleep on it and see how it is tomorrow : )
Fortunately the wine bottle was opened, for medicinal purposes you understand, with my left hand using a bottle opener gadget,
so all is not lost. Phew....



Anyway, I need to get knitting for the Green Fair come November where I sell hand knit Head Huggers and fingerless gloves amongst other things.
This above is the first of this years batch.
I use recycled jumpers and mostly vintage yarns for these.



OH!!!
I must tell you my Commission came through!
Yeahhhhhhhhhhhh
I got paid - I got paid - lol

This is proof that mobile phones can have their problems, so beware!
Her fancy phone wasn't working properly but she of course hadn't known!
And her email was a gmail too so she hadn't got any of my emails either!
I had her Mums embroidery framed - in a vintage tea tray I found at the car boot, and she was thrilled to bits and bought all 4 trees in the end.
Whoop - whoop : )



I had started to make 'flags' to hang on the mdf panel that sits between my front and back rooms and here's a start to the run of pieces.
The first one I made had a woollen bird on it, but it didn't feel right,
so its under re-construction at the moment.
But happily, a piece I bought from Deborah Ohare fits in beautifully : )

  1. Cockled over? And just what were you imbibing prior to said cockling incident, young lady?? Seriously - you'd better hie yourself off to the medical professionals and have that hand checked out. btw - glad your commission came through!

  4. Hope your finger is OK. I had a fall today too. Got wedged in an unmanauverable (?sp) spot, so I couldn't move my feet to save myself. Took a raft of skin off my left arm :( Felt very sorry for myself. Your bird panels look lovely.
