Hello Everyone. Thank-you all so much for the lovely caring e-mails and comments after my fall. My knee is a lovely yellow now and it is much better. My ankle is fine first thing in the morning and as the day goes on it gets quite painful. However, I had a lovely day out on Tuesday with Annie when we went to visit our dear friend Astrid in Edinburgh. As usual we laughed and chatted and ate good food as well as creating some ATB and I still have mine to finish. I took up my WRMK gift bag board and so we made some gift bags too.
To-day I am sharing some bags I made beforehand using the board and so that is going to be my share for you today. Hopefully I will get back to creating in the next few days as I do have some cards to make. I pray that everything is going well for all of you, and lots of hugs for those who are struggling along. Hugs Rita xxxx

Good evening Rita, glad the ankle is improving even if not as quickly as you would want.......patience!!
Love, love, love those brilliant bags, everyone a winner.
Glad you had a good day with Annie and Astrid. Excuse my ignorance but what is an ATB??
I have the WRMK box board but have not used it yet.

Rita,
Despite your poor knee I am so glad you managed to spend the day with Annie and Astrid - I can just imagine all the giggling that took place!
Your bags are stunning! I have never heard of this board but it looks to be a useful tool. You need never purchase a gift bag ever again.
Wishes
Lynne
oh dear Rita you poor thing, I do hope you will be pain free soon. Lovely to take time out with your daughter and Astrid and have a communal craft session. I love your beautiful bags Rita. Take care of yourself, hugs Annette x

Rita it was so lovely to have both you and Annie visiting on Tuesday and I know just how stunning these bags are, being the lucky owner of one of them!! I l still have to finish mine.... and am still very tempted by that board, but I think it will have to wait until next month as I have spent way too much on crafty goodies already, what with going to Ally Pally and everything.
Have a great weekend, - hugs and look after yourself!!
Hi Rita, Sounds like you had a lovely creative day together. Glad to hear you are on the mend now from your fall. These little bags look great to use for small gifts.
Take Care, Julie x
Hi Rita, sorry to discover you've been in the wars but good to see your are recovering from your fall. I'm still having problems with my painful right shoulder which is also affecting my arm and hand. I'm having to use the little grey cells to think of ways I can craft without using my hand for too long. It doesn't help that Alan has sciatica too - what a pair we are at the moment! Anyway, glad to see you had fun in Edinburgh. Your little bags are lovely. Take care my friend and take it easy. Hugs, Elizabeth xx
Sorry Patricia, Artist Trading Blocks. Should have given an explanation. X

So pleased to hear that you managed to have your day with Annie and Astrid, I know how painful it must have been with your ankle and I do hope that if you rest your ankle each day that it will not be too long before it heals fully.
Your bags are stunning Rita, you always decorate them so beautifully too. Hope you had lots of fun making the ATBs. Take care my friend, thinking of you. Big healing hugs, Anne xxx

It does take a long time I know from experience! The bags are beautiful. How did you .make the red flower it is stunning . Take care. Anne x
It is always nice to come visit and see what you have been doing. All is well here in East Tennessee and Spring is definitely here. Lots going on and not in the craft room I'm afraid. Love your bag. Very creative!
