Button Fest!

SOLD

I have a few more to make, rather enjoying using up my fabric bits and pieces that I can't bear to part with, whilst I consider working on a new mini quilt (sent images of my recently finished one off to Liberty, eek) and another commission. Both sets are available in my Etsy Store, and UK buyers take note free shipping!

OH, and yes I forgot about my Folksy store still free UK and International shipping till this Sunday

How to Make a Day Better

Had disappointing news? I have, could say a double whammy, but you know worse things in life, well that's what I keep thinking. Here's how I sort of got over it this morning:

1. Had a lovely conversation with a dear friend, a sibling and my mum
2. Encouraging messages from other friends and family
3. Made some mini scones, because the best things in life come in small packages, just remember diamond rings after all come in small boxes. At least scones however are edible.
4. Think f*** this and get on with some projects for you
5. Made some fabric buttons, some for a dress, and some to sell and feel pleased that they come out lovely.
6. Ate chocolate

I can now say I feel a bit better, sure it stinks, I got turned down for two jobs from the same company, which was a bit of a kick in the teeth got great feedback but I've had that before great feedback but never an offer. (On a side note if anyone needs a qualified secretary with a wicked sense of humour and can sew send me a note)

For my dear Friend


You know who you are, here is your bag, I started it and finished it yesterday, it aided with my relaxation before today, ie. kept my mind on other matters and not worrying on things that are pretty much out of my hands. Your a darling friend, and I hope you like this and that it will keep you sane (and lunch safe) on your way to Brighton, those 18mths will fly by, and then we will party hard, well go out drinking dressed fabulously, as everyone should do once and a while.
