Hello

I haven't been feeling very motivated about blogging lately..not sure exactly why. Maybe it's because our Internet is currently painfully slow, or that I can't bring myself to put down the great book I'm currently reading, or maybe it's just because sometimes I feel like I'm talking to myself and blogging is just a waste of time. HELLO! IS ANYONE OUT THERE!!!! If you are looking at my blog PLEASE leave a comment. Even just a ''hello'' ...... I would really appreciate it.

OK enough complaining. Here are just a few things I've been up to.


Finished a heap of pinafores, which will be going into my Etsy and Madeit stores in the next few days. Just need to get some nicer pics :)


Did a bit of op-shopping. Didn't find alot, but what I did find, I'm thrilled with.

I just love this Alain Gree book I found for $1.00. It's in as-new condition. I just love those colours. I'm a huge fan of Alain Gree illustrations, but his books are hard to come by and go for alot on eBay. I found this book in a box hidden under a rack of shoes...it really pays to rummage when op-shopping.....a real hidden treasure.
These sweet vintage patterns were a great find. I can't wait to use them.


Some fabric arrived in the mail this week....ready to be made into lovely things for my shop.


Now back to that great book I was reading ....te he he :)

    Hi There, just wanted to say Hello! I came to your blog after your comment you left on Lark's blog. I think you are amazing having four kids, an online shop and a blog. I would love to do the same one day. You are inspiring to all us voyeurs and dreamers out there! Also you look gorgeous BTW!
    Cheers,

    You're a sweetie. I am actually a mum too. I have two girls - a 4yr old and an 8yr old. I am a Graphic Designer and have had my own business for 11 years. I mostly do publishing work - those lovely coffee table cookbooks that are lots of fun. Along with other foodie projects like packaging and promotional brochures etc. I am dreaming up an online business for myself, but finding it very hard to when I am flat out with work and doing the juggling thingas a mum. So I mucked around one day with Blogger, and what you see is my 5 minutes of play! I must get serious though if I'm gonna leave comments hey! Nice to meet you, Cheers,
    Danie
