Yep, again with the disgusting gross embarrassing oral thrush.
ARRRRRRRGH!!
Fortunately I recognised the symptoms and had a repeat of the prescription from last time. Still don’t know if the lozenges are supposed to be orange or lemon flavoured – they’re just yuk! I’ll have to try and get in to the doctors this week *sigh*
So anyway – I’m sewing. Or at least getting ready to cut out this:
Simplicity 3921 – I’m making view A, a simple little bolero top.
One side will be plain black cotton, the other black with little white dots – that way it will be reversible and coordinate with the next few things I’m making – and that’s the whole point of the Endless Combinations Contest over on Pattern Review.
The dress I wore for the cup lunch was piece 1 – so piece 2 has to go with that; then the next thing has to combine with either piece 1 or 2; then piece 3 has to combine with any of the previous ones… it’s a great way to make sure I’m not sewing “orphans”.
(And speaking of the cup outfit, I was thrilled to bits that two other blogs featured my hat – the original inspiration, “Outsapop Trashion“, and also “The Lazy Milliner“- wooooohoooooo! THAT’S what blogging’s all about, making connections!! The hat itself went un-noticed at the lunch, except by those on the same table. Next I’m going BIG or not going at all!)
I also cleared my fabric stash of a few pieces of fabric that were so very very autumn I couldn’t even use them as bottoms pieces or linings – fortunately they went to a good Autumn home!
Ow. My mouth and throat are really sore. Obviously I’m working at just the threshold between well and sick – the least bit of stress and overtiredness and BAM! Down I go.
Off to cut fabric now. Talk amongst yourselves.

I love that little bolero and think it will look fab.
Thanks for the lovely fabrics! -
Lucky girl Sue, how cool that you are an autumn!! Love the idea of hte bolero, and it being reverible, very clever And I just love dots…..

That bolero is so you. I can’t wait to see it and what you wear it with. BTW, be sure to throw away your toothbrush or you will keep reinfecting yourself with the fungus.

Hi Sue – Perhaps don’t publish this comment as it’s just an idea about your problem. It’s an old Qld Granny’s recipe really and it works with mouth ulcers (which I know is different entirely). I don’t think it can hurt though and it may help. If I ever get a mouth ulcer I use bi-carb straight on it (and the next day it’s gone) but you can make a mouth wash as strong as possible with the bi-carb (as much as can be dissolved into the water) and just gargle it every time you pass by. Basically, I believe, it balances out the PH in your mouth. It may make you feel a little better hopefully.

Sorry – I meant Caity. I was looking at Sue’s comments and off I went being vague as usual and wrote Sue. I think the bolero idea is a good one and will be very useful in the two different fabrics.

Caity – I forgot to mention that it must be a real thrill being published on other people’s blogs. Your zipper roses are amazing and reminded me of one of the Project Runway shows (I think it was the last Australian one but I’m not sure). The person used zippers in another unusual way – I think he put them between godets or something like that, but he used them like a braid and it was incredibly effective. I might try to find it but that would mean watching the entire program again. No maybe not. Belinda might recall. It was a great idea on your hat though.
