Hello everyone

As we're all a bit stuck in for the foreseeable, this week's challenge is "Making things" - so it could be things you make, or things you use to make things .... as long as it's creative and doesn't involve breaching the social distancing rules.

As always:

1. The challenge is just for fun.
2. All images must be taken after the theme is announced.
3. The challenge runs from 8pm on the Sunday and runs until 8pm the following Sunday.
4. Only one upload per member.
5. Please feel free to comment on the entries once judging is complete.
6. The person who hosts is the judge for that week challenge and the judge’s decision is final.
7. The winner gets to create, run and judge the challenge for the following week.
8. Have fun and stay safe

It was a Valentine's day occurrence and as it turned out, not the best time to do it.

Congratulations Eddie and Mrs Eddie.
Why did endoscope attachment jump into my mind..... I need to get out more.

Well an entry in.
I pruned a number of branches off our Laburnum last year.
The tree is determined not to give in as new branches appear in recent weeks.

I was tempted to title it 'making wood' but went for 'branching out'...Wink

Well, what an interesting bunch of images and tough to decide.

Linda and Malc with your sewing themes - both very sharp and to the point, and Alison is showing us who's the bosch. Can you mix me a screwdriver?

Eddie's jelly gave me a wobble (can anyone else see the tyrannosaurus in the cube 45 degrees down to the left of the water stream, or the chicken/duck in the one left 90 degrees? Or am I going mad after all this time cooped up?

Nice to see Phil is getting his oats...while Dave is branching out, and Rob's knitting aphid had me in stitches.

A hard choice but I have decided to hand the challenge to the person who kneads the dough more than the rest of us ... Phil's bread has risen to the occasion and wins this week's bake-off.

Thanks all and look forward to next week.

well the Black and White Challenge clique were more welcoming,
I guess my first entry here was too far off the topic to even get a mention...

I thought it was a well taken (and seen) photo and not off topic so stick with it and see what the next theme is.

Quite a few members frequent both groups so we should be welcoming here also. Smile

Well done Phil. If you put that photo on a stock photo website you may earn some dough!!

Now you have to come up with a new theme but that's probably the yeast you can do. Wink

Many thanks to Andrew for this week!! Smile

Thank you. I had noticed the almost 100% member overlap. And the appalling puns.

Sadly that little spider wasn't there the next day.
