Never any time!!







Well I am slowly getting there in my scribble design :) I used a gorgeous #30 weight thread for some of the design, but I don't have a 100" needle and it just tore up the thread! It's amazing how much a difference a needle makes. So I need to get some more needles.

Such a busy week doing all the normal stuff plus a whole lot of extras. The best part was that I rediscovered the best op shop!! And it now has a designer section!!! Sooooo good! Went with great friends and had a great time. Brand new designer jeans that fit like they were made for me for $5!!!!! Two brand new pair of shoes for $20!! They have a $2 section and I got great clothes from there too. What an adrenalin rush that was :)

It had been raining all day and it kept getting worse here yesterday and getting home from school took three times as long and I was lucky to get home. There was so much flooding people got stuck everywhere and the highway was still blocked and jammed at 10pm!!! My brother got stuck in a train and had to stay overnight as the highway was blocked and a bridge was damaged from a car hitting it.  A bit of fun really :). 

Been watching The good wife again, such a great show. I think I love kalinda the best and since it seems like she is getting her own show, then I am super excited!!:)

Off to do some sewing before I have to hang another million loads of washing out.

Leaves

I have started doing the leaves for my gorgeous tree with wash away. Note to self, dry hands thoroughly before touching wash away :) I love using the wash away, it is very cool and I love shaping the leaves once they have been wet and then they stay that shape!! How cool is that.


I think they look all right so far.
Going over the leaves with a lighter green, giving it a bit of depth hopefully :)




Was watching the last episode of the season for The Good Wife, big fan, and in the last minute it crashed! All this tension and build up and... nothing :) will have work out what happened real quick. Loving Grimm still too, that is such a fun show to watch. What are you watching at the moment?
