Flying in very late with my numbers for October - you can find out about My Month in Numbers on
Julie's blog if you would like to join in.
October was all about getting ready for the all day fundraiser that I did on Friday, having sold so much of my cards and jewellery at the coffee morning that I did at my parent's sheltered housing complex. We raised £
195 for
Children with Cancer Fund.
So to replenish my stock I made
66 Christmas cards,
10 stretchy bracelets,
5 memory wire bracelets,
10 pairs of earrings,
6 post it note pads,
20 other cards and stitched & stuffed
2 knitted teddy bears. I will let you know how much I raised when I do November's numbers.
Scrapbooking had to take a back seat during October but I still managed
1 double page layout at my monthly class and
3 layouts at my crop.
There are now only
122 days to the Marillion convention next March in The Netherlands.
A welcome break in the middle of my craft-fest was a weekend convention in Leamington Spa for Fish (ex-lead singer of Marillion). It was a great weekend -
2 acoustic sets,
2 evening gigs,
2 great support bands,
1 film screening and many hours spent in the company of great friends.
I managed to keep up with
Blogtoberfest and do a daily blog post for
31 days!!
And now it is onwards and upwards with November, lets see what numbers this next month brings!!
