WOYWW #899

         

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #898

No work desk this week as on Monday I came into hospital for a hip replacement. I did bring some crossstitch but thus far it has stayed in my bag.
I am doing pretty well - the drugs help!


I don't think I have anything to share - all my recent makes are for swaps so secret for now. All my long challenges are on hold for a day or two. And I haven't got photos.
So to finish I will just add some pictures from the weekend trip to Wattle Park and our garden.
It is definitely 'yellow' season here...we are moving into Spring. The first picture is in our garden.




 

Hope to get round everyone this week... 
Happy crafting - Happy WOYWW!
