Still sorting through...

Just back from hols, and I'm still sorting through stuff. Once again, I went into needlework overdrive, starting a pair of socks (knitting patterns, people! Suddenly, I'm getting them!), getting THE most exciting embroidery book I have seen in a long time, having my first go at whitework (and having a brainwave, too - more on that once I've actually got some results...), and then making a lovely summery skirt as well. Being round my mum does that to me, and I like it.

The weather was being funny, playing nice whenever it was needed, but no more than that. And I discovered that 'tis a great year for blueberries. Nobody believed me, but if you happen to hang round a german forest in the near future, check'em out!

Enough for now, but there'll be more reports of findings and experiments soon!

Up up and away!

It's done! The new website is up! I'm *so* chuffed with it... So, check it out and marvel at the delights it holds in store.

Sometimes I find myself in a love/ hate relationship with ideas. Obviously, having them is kinda essential to doing cool things, but sometimes they get in the way of each other, or completely take over your brain. So, today, instead of preparing for the market tomorrow, making another Minimonster Musical Mobile, as I had planned, and doing the dishes, I faffed about with a dress all day. Meanwhile, it has gotten so late that I won't even bother trying to take a photo of it, and technically, it's not even properly finished.

Well. I may not have anything much to sell tomorrow, but at least I've got something to wear. Gotta get your priorities straight, I guess.

Nee-naw nee-naw!

Nee naw

I'm spending so much time these days drawing police cars, I ended up putting some on a ribbon.
