seems like just yesterday i was posting my first post, it has been a week already. well the best laid plans and all. unfortunately my camera broke, so no photos and i have been busy at work and haven't been able to do the crafts i was planning.
i took my nieces shopping and to their tennis lesson saturday (a promise is a promise!) so that day was lost for diying. i did manage to do a little fabric and yarn shopping while we were out. living an hour away from shopping always has me making the most of the trips. i visited a nice quilt shop in vestal, grandmother's thimble. they had some prints that i have been longing to see in person. they were just as adorable in person as i thought so of course i had to purchase them.
i also picked up some beautiful merino wool yarn to make a hat i love. it is a gorgeous brown with some orange running through it. i found a wonderful pattern over at knitty called piggle. it is a lace rib hat with holes for pigtails! i just love the photo, i couldn't not make it once i saw that mug!
i have a "repair" job to do on one of my bags that i am dreading. it's not really a repair, but a request for an additional pocket on a special order xmas bag. the recipient of the bag wanted an another pocket so i will gladly do it. i just am not looking forward to undoing what's is all done, but c'est la vie! your wish is my command, or as westley says, "as you wish" (i love that movie!).
i found a great little shop on the web through one of my many favorite blogs (can't remember which one!). it is called nut and bee. the sketchbook sweeties are so cute, i personally love the august sweetie "mallow roastin' mallow". these are great and can be purchased as prints and some of them are available on paper, etc. the artist that creates them is from new zealand. enjoy the adorables!
