A bionic shoulder, a dream space, and a cricut...

It is 12 weeks since the implantation of my new left shoulder. I am yet to feel bionic... but I did graduate  home PT today and will begin the next stage of rehab next week at the rehab hospital...

My new sewing space is stunning and I am 2/3 through the Bernina 990 workshop. I am yet to enjoy sewing on my new machine...

But the space is a dream and I am making progress towards creating on it.

What I am doing- is mastering the Cricut Joy Xtra that I purchased for myself as a pre holiday gift. 

I thought I'd make a few gift cards

 and maybe a mug or 2...

but I am stunned by the possibilities of paper slicing and actually having fun glueing and pasting.

In any case, it is easy on my shoulder and allows me to feel like I am able to be creative, so for that reason alone- I consider it a win!

Whilst I did relocate all the furnishings from my old sewing space... IKEA deliveries fill most of the space that is not officially merchandise from Bernina.

Cricut Joy Xtra 

After this project I was hooked!!!

The swimmer will be for my SIL...

And then came the holiday mugs....

mugs, 

and mugs,

 AND mugs!

Awaiting more supplies!
