Thanks Lorraine. To some extent you’re reading my mind! I’ve changed the opening, she’s on a three day pass, we’re down to one policeman, added sensory bits, edited, edited. Your comments are very helpful. I think I might just put it on my website.

Fab night at NIBS last night – some amazing work coming out of the group. Not least because of a prompt that had middle-aged Gwendoline going on the rampage in the works canteen wearing underwear made from Wotsits, and evading security on a hostess trolley…

Thanks, Gipps – and you should see my scrap bag! I’m sure there’s at least another quilt in there trying to get out, plus a couple of sets of squares that I need to do something with…
Next quilting project is one for my son – I’m aiming to get it done by the time he goes to uni. Which gives me a year…eeek!!

Daeds, as many of us are still finding their way around the Den, is it worth re-posting this? And, perhaps, giving a longer deadline? It’s a fantastic concept.

Thanks for kicking this off, Daeds. The theme couldn’t be more appropriate.

Never understood the filtering aspect of making friends, Jules, so thanks for that. The friends function never seemed to make any difference on the Cloud (that I could detect) but making friends here over recent weeks has felt more about reunion hugs and so-happy-and-relieved-to-see-you-again. 🙂

Love your talents Squidge, especially the striped rainbow-coloured quilt! I’m a huge fan of textiles and have often thought it would be fun to make a quilt using free-from sewing, but never got round to making a start. And yes, so very heartening that Cloudies have a new home. x

Choose ring bound notebooks to scribble ideas in; you’ll never lose your pen if you keep one clipped down the inside of the rings…

Jane – yes, this is the start of number 2…
Will have a think about the success bit… If two peeps think it, you might well have a point. 😉

We used to have a place for Writing Prompts on the cloud…can’t remember where. Is there any mileage in having the same here? And if so, is the Lifeboat the best place for it? Happy to kick one off if folks want it – I’m heading to NIBS tonight and there’s a couple of corkers we’re going to be using…

Oh I see! Sort of a ‘how much longer is she going to keep trying this?’ vibe?
