BIT OF THIS 'N' THAT TODAY

 

First up for today, I am heading into the sewing room to make a start on a runner that only requires straight stitching right now.  A braid runner, which I would like to get done for the next market.

At lunch time we are heading out to Liam's Birthday lunch.  He is turning 13 today.  

After that we will drop in on Steve, Bex and the kids for a little while, before coming home again.

After some considerable thought, and ideas tossed around, Stew and I came up with a name for the new sewing machine.

ABOVE:  He got that name because he will be my SECOND machine in the INNOV-IS Quilt Club range.

Mc comes first because?  I dunno... it just happened with Mc Dreamy and has stuck.  So Mc 2'ie will be his name.

Next.  Steve won a 'beach trolley' in a Super Liquor competition.

ABOVE:  It is really neat, and folds up quite small and flat.  We are thinking of getting one, so I can use it to transport my sewing stuff down to the craft room, and even stuff from the car to our stall site at markets.

We do have a trolley already, but one like the above one would be much better to use, and store.

So, we will pop out to Mitre 10 and Bunnings later on this afternoon to look at options.

ONWARD...
