While I'm limping on, waiting for some treatment for this thyroid gland virus, I really cannot be bothered to take photos. This is unfortunate, as I clearly
can be bothered to blog. So I need to find something for you to look at!
I was in need of some happy photos myself last night, and I though of Flickr. Obviously, loads of you are completely conversant with Flickr and all the clever things you can do on it, but not me. I had a yahoo account but it time-lapsed on me.
But I sought and found the
Granny Chic group. Oh Happy Day!
The colours are just so stunningly cheerful.
And I have one or two photos from the last year which are that happy myself.
I tracked them down last night.
Happy!
And I reactivated my yahoo account, which took a little while.
And then this morning I joined the Granny Chic group and popped five photos (you have a maximim of five a week) onto it.
And they have been accepted! (The fear of rejection was on me for a moment.)
Therefore I can tell you that the Granny Chic group not only has great images in it, but it is also swiftly (and of course tastefully) moderated. Very impressive.
I never showed you the cushion above, because I upcycled it for my sister for Christmas.
You've seen these doilies made into loads of things!
The restorative power of a good dose of red and blue.

Going to check out Granny Chic right now.
I think the cushion is fantastic, I love the idea of granny chic, but I am not inany way chic!!
I'm with the girls, the cushion looks fabby, as well as your tag made of a map's scrap!

Oh I love crocheting grannies. Thanks for posting the pictures and the Flickr group. I checked it out and bookmarked it.
I´m still crocheting two blankets blue colors and pink colors.
Later I´ll do a colorful for the kids room.
Hope you feel better soon.....
Have a great weekend! Stay warm and be creative :D
Sorry you are still under the weather. Hope you start feeling better real soon. Great job on the cushion. I have really slacked on taking pictures also, due to the back and leg issue.
Have a great weekend.
Get fit and well soon. The cushion and photo's are lovely. It's nice to see something cheery on a dull and wet Friday afternoon in our part of the world!
What wonderful colourful photos...I love the kitty on the patchwork particularly! I'm a bit flickr shy myself...I should really get an account... xxx
I'm loving all your happy photos! and of course I love the granny chic group as well. Thanks for your comments on my pics. Feel better soon :)
Oh Floss, I do hope you will be your normal self again real soon.
I am completely clueless when it comes to flickr, really ought to look into it one of these days. Well done on being accepted by that group though, thats wonderful!
Great cushion, I bet your sis was really pleased with it.
Hope you feel better soon xxxx
Love the idea of GrannyChic :)
The first picture could have come straight off the pages of Country Living AND you've made it summer too (rather handy as its grey & wet here today).
hey I think I found the granny chic group this week, what with all my granny squares.
take care
Clare

Dear Floss
I hope those medical folk soon have you hopping and skipping again.
I love seeing and revisiting these photos again - Like you I haven't used my camera much this week and it can be fun to 'recycle' the photos too, can't it?
Take care
