WELL I TRIED

 

ABOVE:  Last night I did try to find some fabric that I could make into duvet covers.  This was the only one that I was certain I had enough of to do it with, but as you can see, it's just too busy.  

And I wasn't going to do a patchwork type one either... it would have still been too busy.

I also wanted to keep using my existing linen/pillow accessories.

ABOVE:  I made up HALF the bed, with one new duvet and cover to show you how it will look once I have both duvets on the bed.  I think the white/floral duvet cover is just darling.

And of course, it goes with what I already have.

Winning.

Today?

I am definitely getting into Crabby Quarters and working on those 12 runners.  Quilting, then binding.  It will take me a few days.

ABOVE:  It's a bit funny eh?  

ONWARD...

1.35 pm.

I decided to come down to the craft room and do my sewing here today. I knew there would be a couple of other ladies here, so thought the company would be nice.

ABOVE : I've quilted and trimmed five runners so far. I'll probably do a couple more before heading home. It's nice and warm down here, but I do miss watching Netflix movies while I'm sewing.

4.30 pm, I came home after quilting 7 runners, so a good effort for the day.  It's bloody cold in my house, so I'm sitting with my heated throw on, watching a Netflix doco.  True crime, which I really enjoy.

Stew and I are going out for dinner, to The Lookout again.  

Right now though, I really should get up and close the curtains and put away my sewing stuff.

8 pm.  Just in from having dinner at The Lookout.  It was freakin' busy, busy, busy.  And live music, which was a bit too loud.  We probably won't go there on a Friday night again.

But the meal was fantastic.

ABOVE: We shared a pizza, though Stew always eats way more than I do.

Then for a change, we ordered a dessert each.

ABOVE: We both had the Apple Crumble with a side of ice cream.  It was delicious.  

I'm now feeling decidedly jaded, and will be having an early night.

Catch ya tomorrow.
