It suddenly got cold! Brrr! And here am I still looking at things I was “gunnasew” for Summer…
Not much happening here – trying to work out if I can re-schedule a medical scan so I can go to the Stitches and Craft Show in Brisbane instead (scan not urgent, so no panic there. Just trying to sort out the PCOS stuff *sigh* I’ve had the pain for months now, another week won’t make any difference!).
And I’d really like to go to the fashion parades at the show – especially with the independent pattern companies, their illustrations don’t really tell you how the garment will look made up. (Mind you, neither do the big 4 – how many times have I seen a terrific garment sewn up, and been amazed that the drawing was so blah?)
Today’s post brought the Patchwork Quilt Tsushin and Quilt Japan magazines I ordered from New Zealand Quilter. Lovelovelove those mags! (Wish I remembered more of my Japanese studies, and that I hadn’t lost all my textbooks to one of the exes or moves, but never mind.)
Look at this beautiful shrug! I reckon with some trial and error with the diagram I can make something similar. Hmmmm!
Ok, I’m too bloody cold to stay here and type – I’m off to bed with a hot water bottle, my new magazines, and a notebook…
