Obsessed with Gold

 Obsessed with all things gold at the moment. Both of these are on my Christmas wish list.

Yum. Yum. Yum.

Also kinda freaking out as our Christmas guest list has doubled.
And trying to suit everybodys dietary requirements for 3 meals is totally freaking me out!

And now my sewing list is being added to - while other things are getting removed.  Totally flustered right now. Need to start a new list and get it all under control again.
Or indulge in a little retail therapy. Possibly something gold.....

Hope your week is a happy one,

It is cold today. Actually it has been for the past few days. Had to go out in the rain today and vote. Came home soaked. This is the view from my back door. The ground is so wet.

My kitties are keeping me warm. Violet only snuggles with me on the couch. She has been sweet company for me this week while I have been feeling unwell.

 And Dash is always on my lap when I'm at the computer.

Last week I painted my nails. And as soon as I took the polish off I chopped my nails off. Does anyone else do that? It's like I get to a certain length and then have to hack them off. I do the same thing with my hair too.

My nail polishes won't be getting a workout anytime soon. My nails are very very short!!

I am still plugging along with the granny squares. I'm up to 3 now.
Kinda sick of the colours and need more wool. I don't think my technique is there yet but I think I am improving slightly.

And today I finally placed an order for some fabric for the Patchwork Prism Quilt-A-Long

I decided on using Anna Maria Horner's Innocent Crush and Loulouthi. I got all of it from Hawthorne Threads.
Can't wait until it arrives and I can start cutting. In the meantime I still have a lot on my to do list.

Maybe if I aim to cut something out tonight - I might get time to sew it together tomorrow. Maybe.

Hope you are having a super productive weekend -

Hello...again!

So in the past 2ish weeks -

I picked up this quilt again - got in the zone - and then ran out of thread. What are the odds?
Only just got some more, so I'm planning on picking it back up today.

Have been enjoying a new delicious brekky. Baked spinach, eggs and fetta. Mmm.

And this yoghurt. Even though it's twice as many calories as my old one - it is more than twice as delicious. Yum!!

And a new polish - OPI Teenage Dream. Two of my favourite things - pink & glitter! I love the way it sparkles. Obviously much better in real life.

Finishing up my coffee and off to the sewing machine.
Have a fabulous day
