Last leg

I strode into my workroom this afternoon with the firm intention of getting to grips with the last of the the Big Draw book. The pile of 400 drawings had dwindled down to less than 100 and I knew if I could focus I could finish.


However........I still hadn't unpacked from Saturday's workshop and there wasn't much in the way of table space.

Suddenly I felt more like going for a nap....but I didn't. It was on with the cordless headphones and with Lily Allen blasting out I went for it and HURRAY AND HUZZAH.....I'm finished gluing! The pages are having themselves a nice little squash under some of those fully loaded Ikea bins. With a bit of luck I'll have them all stitched in next week in time to clear the decks for my February project. The book itself is in the shop at the moment. It's outgrown its Fed-Ex box and is so heavy I can no longer lift it with one hand. It's going to be a monster!
By way of celebration I thought I would share with you this wonderful blow up a Giles cartoon that was lurks behind my sleeping puppet. It shows my customers during the summer season....God bless them every one!

Good for you Sally. It's been a big job, but well worth it I should think.
