So now it is time for this weeks word for our challenge!

The word for this week is Gallery

Word Photo Challenge 2016

I'm  baaaack! Sorry for being so long missing, but it was Mothers Day and everything, so this is the second long week in the challenge - I'll try not to do anymore!

So the weeks (fortnights) word is CREATIVE, and have I got a photo for you!!

My friend offered me this a while ago, and finally I am able to stretch my CREATIVE mind and learn how to  use it!

"What is it?" I hear you ask.

"It is this" I reply:



I hear you ask again "What is it?", to which I reply "It is an Empisal KH91 knitting machine".

I'm sure you can understand how this machine is streatching my creative brain to its absolute limits! I can knit by hand, but I have never ever used a knitting machine, let alone one this old and beautiful!

But , believe me, I am learning fast - I can now cast on and knit plain rows, so I'm going well.

Now I just need to learn about this:


I'm sorry you cannot see this well, but this is the Empisal KH90 ribber, it attaches (!) to the flat bed machine, and i will be able to make all sorts of exciting things with these!

In the plastic bucket on the bottom is a load of lovely soft fabric for the backs of quiltm, and in the top box there are all the original manuals for these machines, plus lots of yarn!

Aren't I a lucky girl??!

I am really so happy with this, I am looking forward to letting my creativity take over once I learn all the basics.

So join in below and show us your "creative" and I will be back  Tuesday with next weeks word.

52 Weeks Word Photo Challenge 2016

Hallo and welcome everyone, to the first week of our 52 weeks word photo challenge for 2016!
I am really excited to be hosting this challenge for this year as I missed it last year, and have already written up lots and lots of words for you!!
 Please try not to hate me too much this year, it will be worth it in the end, BECAUSE this year I am giving prizes out as we go through! So this year will work like this:

I shall start the ball rolling tonight by posting our first word

So next Sunday, I will put up a Linky when I blog about what this word means to me  and show you my photo. You have until next Monday evening to photograph what this word means to you, and post it in the Mr Linky at the bottom of this post ( I am hoping that I am still able to use Mr Linky, don't worry though, as i will work it out soon so we can use him!

Then you can join in with your photos and we will all come over to your blogs and have a look at your photo and few words!  Our photo does not mean to be of anything in particular, simply our own way of looking at the word.

Isn't his a great way to find more blogs to follow!!?? And also we can get to know each other better too!

If anyone is just passing through and would like to join in, please feel free to join us at any time.

Throughout the year, I shall tell you occasionally that there will be a prize for something the following week. It may be for the funniest,  sweetest, cutest, or whatever. The pictures will all be looked at and the winner will be notified that they have won, and everyone else will be told too, and the prize will be posted to you.

This prize may be anything I can think of, perhaps a book or something I make especially for you! It is a surprise and you can tell your fellow entrants about it if and when you want to.

So, have I confused you enough yet? Leave any questions you may have in the comments and I'll answer them asap.

So, here we go!

The word for this first week is: "red" . As in the colour red.

I'll be back next Sunday evening with my thoughts on this word along with my photograph and the Mr Linky for you to enter.

Have fun with it and I will see you then
