SHORT WEEK

 

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm going to bore the pants off you today!

I'm not going out.

I'm going to sew all day long.

Bowl Cosy's till they are coming out me ears in fact.

I am determined to have masses of them in my stash!  Yesterday I got 16 made.

I am loving making them right now.  When I get bored of them, I'll go back to making runners.

Before I start sewing this morning though, I MUST tidy up the sewing room floor.  It's a bloody tip!  Threads and scraps of fabric EVERYWHERE.  I kid you not, it's really bad.

I've been traipsing threads and little bits of fabric all through the house stuck on the bottom of me socks, which is rather annoying.

Tomorrow is Easter.  Stew is thrilled to bits, as I'm sure are millions of other people.

A lovely long weekend stretches ahead.

We are planning a couple of day trips out of Hamilton.  Nothing is finalised yet, we are just gunna wing it.  Probably Tauranga tomorrow and ? Saturday.

Sunday we will be staying home.

Awww ya know you are loved when your kid messages you cos you forgot to hit 'PUBLISH' on your post for the day!  Thanks for the heads up Mike.  Love you too.

Did no one else miss me then????

1 pm:  And I've only managed to make 7 bowl cosy's so far today.

Got distracted with other stuff, like HOUSEWORK.

ABOVE: This is the first one I've made in a long time that I really don't like.

It's probably just the colour, not my taste at all.

But I bet someone will love it.  

ABOVE:  Finished for the day on 13.  Only cos I've run outta cotton wadding!

I might just go and get some more, seeing as it's on sale for half price.

ANON:  I'm sure you said "Only 7"😏 tongue in cheek right?  

A quick trip to Spotlight, and I now have more cotton wadding, so I can make more bowl cosy's.

I'm gunna have such a stash soon!

Once Stew arrived home from work, we popped over to visit Steve, Bex and their kids.

Steve had a surgical procedure today and was feeling quite good considering.  

Lily was so cute, till she started screaming.  Luckily, Bex knows how to settle her down fairly fast.

ABOVE: This feijoa tree in their back yard has so much fruit on it, it's falling down!  I'm surprised that huge branch has not snapped off yet.

We came home with some feijoas, yummy.

And ... that's me for the day.  I'm tired and ready to just sit and relax until bedtime.

Catch ya tomorrow.
