Since i missed out sewing last weekend along with Chookyblue, due to a migraine, for her Chookshed birthday i planned a sewing retreat for myself this weekend & luckily it coincided with FNwF. Great, i thought, planning all sorts of things in my head until i remembered Friday was the 6 week orthodontist check up. Darn there goes part of the day. Oh well thinking i'll still go ahead with things. Famous last words. :)
So i planned slow cooker meals & even cakes/slices. Started to make pea & ham soup for last nights dinner.
My soup turned out fabulous but i guess you are wondering did i sew. Well when i was cutting up the vegetables to put into the soup i did this.
Sorry not a good photo. I sliced open the side of my finger just under the fingernail. Being right handed & the cut being where it is i couldn't hold a pencil or needle. I was planning to prep this months boms in the morning before the appointment. Didn't happen as blood was pouring out & the cut painful. Moving on wondered if i could manage to make muffins & but put that aside until later as i had a small visitor arrive. We ended up watching this
After the appointment i thought i'd make those muffins but darn it i aggravated the finger & yes there was blood again. :( but the muffins were made.
So to finish my sorry tale of woe i'll show you what i did make last night
51 coffins. I did have to hold the glue pen a little different than usual but at least i could get something done. Now to see if i can get any sewing done today. It's cold & overcast again. Maybe i'll just curl up under a blankie & read or maybe cut more coffins & watch Netflix. :)
Thankyou once again to our lovely hostess
Cheryll for being our hostess again last night. Pop over to Cheryll's blog to find the links to who joined in last night & what projects they worked on.
Happy Stitching,

aww nothing worse than a sore finger, I burnt mine on a frypan handle and couldnt sew :(
Glad your feeling better thou and love that you prepared meals for later on. Might do that today as I can hear some long awaiting epp calling me...love your coffins...not tempted yet lol
Amazing how those sorts of injuries can be so annoyingly ouchy! Good work weilding the glue stick for your coffins!
How awful Jeanette! Those little cuts can be so sore & can bleed so much! I hope it soon improves so you can pick up your needle again!
Glad to see persistence does pay off :)
Prepping is just as important as the stitching....hope the finger heals quick ...
OUCH! That does sound painful, I hope it heals soon, you still managed to get a lot done including having special time with your small visitor, Have a happy weekend..
I think you need a holiday after all that has happened. Hope you have a better time next week.
You managed quite a lot with a sore finger.
Great looking soup....hope the finger is better ❤️❤️❤️
Darn about your finger - we do need them to work properly!!
Love the new look blog too.

Oh what a shame Jeanette! Still, lots of coffins and a fun movie! xx
Well the food looks great but OUCH!!!! Hope you heal quickly!!
Oh dear, I'm so sorry about your injury. Nice to see that you didn't let it stop you and you created quite a few EPP coffins.
Gosh you sound determined - you really did keep at it!! Maybe next weekend huh?! Good you got a little baking and glueing done even if it wasn't all you planned to do!
You were in the wars for FNwF this month... sorry to hear what happened.
It was good to be able to use glue though... xox
