hey everyone

I went to the beading and quilting show today wow those quilters are an amazing bunch.
would have been really nice to go with someone but it was also nice to spend the day by myself.
bought heaps of beads for rosary beads. and some shirley barbers fairy material. to make pull string bags . couple of people i know on atcsforall.com are a bit down so I have made something small to cheer them up.

hi everyone

had a really busy couple of weeks but I am only working one day this week , so I have a chance to catch my breath. Bridget and I went to Chadstone shoping centre yesterday and had a lovely day. I got some more lush soap and some facial scrub which I find leaves my skin feeling sooo soft , I ususally get really dry skin after washing it so usually i don't bother with any product. but this stuff angels on the skin (or something) it just really great and I also bought a drink bottle from smiggles and two romance novels and two papercraft mags. got a jumper and looked at some togs too(swimmers, bathers, cossies)had a really good day. oh yeah on the way home I popped into spotlight and got polymer clay( bright yellow ) to make buttons for my crocheted cardnigan I am making. and I also made a mushroom button which is huge but hey I just call it huge & not perfect.

hi everyone

hi everyone,
I have had a busy week. $90 million in the shop and then people coming in to check their tickets and then their payouts. todya we had a blackout in pakenham and thus the tatts counter easied off and the sales still were up but when the power went back on it was on for young and old. but this kind of thing keeps one on ones toes.
i got a victorian craft mag on sunday and have made two things out of it . I got the dottie dolls fever lasts year but in the mag they had soul divas basically the same but by a textile artist named sarah lawerence her website www.craftynotions.com lovely stuff. they also have a marvel caped that is crocheted so when I have finished the cardigan i am crochet for my self at this point(lol) it's nice to pick up my crocheting hooks again. i crochet a baby sling for harvesting vegies it's turned out pretty good holds quite a bit. I made it because in the summer when I am out in the garden and I see vegies that I need to harvest I can just pick them and not go in side and have one of the kids distract me or me distract myself with other things soo I went to spot light and got a pattern book (on special of course! lol) and some very bright multicoloured wool. well i don't know what happened but I bought 6 balls of wools toooo many so I thought I might as well do some thing else because Icrochet while i watch tv so that's it from me.
cheerss
