Lots of sewing… not many pics

Hey there, today was a massive day of sewing.  Dan had a day off today so he looked after Hamish while I sewed.. and sewed.. and sewed.  I hope to post some pictures tomorrow afternoon.

The kite pic is in honour of the Kite Festival that we went to at Wanda beach yesterday.  It was a stunning day, and Cadel and Hamish were in awe of the kites.

What have I been up to….

This week has been incredibly busy…

I just resigned from my job after being on maternity leave for 11 months

I visited this lovely store.  They will be selling a couple of my softies, a brown owl (not the crafty kind though), and my robot.

I opened my etsy store.

And we did a photoshoot of my softies in the front yard (getting some strange looks from the neighbours)

All good things really

and to top it all off I have just found out that I will be able to go to Finders Keepers tomorrow evening while Dan looks after the boys.  yay

My creative space

Today I am working at the table outside.

Monkey no. 2 is sick now and I am not feeling great so we’re trying to get some fresh air.

I’m pairing fabrics and preparing to cut pieces out for softies.

I’m thrilled that Charlie has found a good home.

For other creative spaces visit Kirsty at kootoyoo.

What have I been up to…

Well hello.  Is anybody still out there? Its been a while huh.

I’ve been busy doing everything other than blogging lately.

I’ve been lurking here and here.

I’ve been getting up EARLY with my youngest, who seems to want to start the day at 4.50- 5.10 am.

I’ve been looking after my husband, he had a bit of a cold and can be a bit like this.

(You’ve probably all seen this, I still laugh every time I see it though.)

I’ve been sewing owls, hippos, and new funky monsters (I promise pics to come).

What have you been up to?

What I’ve been up to…

Checking Cadel’s hair for lice (yuck).  It makes me itchy just thinking about it.   I don’t think he has them though

Chasing Hamish as he follows his big brother around… alot.  

Finishing a baby playmat which will go in the shop (when I set it up).

Working on owl and hippo softies.  They are cute and I am really excited.  I’ll post photos soon. 

Entering competitions and hoping I win.  tollipop has a lovely one going at the moment, as does little lovelies.  

Living on the dark side with right justification. 

What have you been up to ?

Thanks for stopping by…

 

A good time was had by all….

The weather was so gorgeous today we decided to head over to Petersham Park for a picnic with Daniel’s parents.  Cadel and Hamish had a great time playing and eating grass (respectively).  

We dined on this…

Smoked Salmon Quiche with salad, and ….

Gramma pie with cream… yum.  

Then we left the kids with their grandparents and headed over to Newtown for a glass of wine at the Bank hotel and a browse in the shops.  Lovely…

Happy Easter
