Pinned

I have absolutely fallen head over heals for pin interest, in every i-form possible!!! But, not only has it sucked me in bid time, I think it has given me back ye olde crafting mojo! Watch out sewing machines, there's a whole batch of fabric coming your way today!!!

Also loving Instagram xxx

what i should be doing..

is cleaning out the kitchen cupboard....

instead, I'm trolling the internets for ingredients to make a product that The Mister (aka, Spence) wants to make & sell for his little woodcraft sideline (stay tuned?) so I am instead, still in the study. 

but, what i want to do is.......

sew! 

This pattern I downloaded from Pink Chalk Fabric in the great pattern agogo spree of 2011.

but alas, all thats done is the cutting out of paper, not even sticky taped yet.

patterns agogo

Just had a mini shopping spree on-line.

Managed to purchase 4 new Lisette patterns from Oliver + S via Simplicity on sewingpatterns, along with a pinafore pattern which I plan to sew in linen, also purchased some dress patterns from Jamie Christina Design and a few patterns from Pink Chalk Studio, and Serindipity Studio.

Can. Not.Wait.

So here's a sneak peak at what damage I just did.....

(follow the links up there, if you please!)

Serendipity Studio Dianne Kimono Dress

 Oliver + S Lisette range, from Simplicity (4 patterns)

 Jamie Christina x 2 patterns


 a shirt pattern from Collette Patterns via Pink Chalk Studio, a Modkids pattern, & Another Serendipity studio pattern



All of these patterns can be cross seasonal, as I tend to layer a lot with Vigorella basics

I think I may call I quits for now?

Legal knots & Silver linings

I've been wrangling with a pretty huge legal knot at the moment, but it looks like it may soon be over. All fingers are crossed. It has to do with my new business, so I have had to shut down my tea shop for over a week now. I've just seen the latest legal letter sent by my lawyer to their lawyer, and hopefully it will be the last of this drama. It has been absolutely soul destroying on my half, pretty much reputation destroying on their behalf, so a total waste of time, money & effort, and for what? Anyways, I've lost income, but if there's a silver lining, I've managed to clean 75% of my house and look after a 10 year old man-flu sufferer all week, so pretty much evens out (?). And I have a cleanish craft space, and a head full of ideas!
Now I have one more room to clean & kitchen cupboards to organize and the house is sorted for another.....still to be determined period of time!

picking up the threads

I have been missing blogging of late, both missing the connections and the urge to create. So here I go again.
