My Creative Space


This little tea cup represents an exciting new project I have in mind. Do you have lots of plans and ideas? Sometimes these things take time and that's where I'm at right now, being patient & making lists, thinking & planning.


Yesterday was one of those 'getting a million things done' kind of days. In a good way! Dealing with a lot of the chaos left over from school holidays, hanging with my kinder girl, making lists and cooking. A couple of these fresh chook eggs created...



some beautiful swirls in the mixing bowl.
Which later became lamingtons, a family favourite.


In between chopping and cooking up another batch of quince jelly I finally started my pin cushion. For some reason this pin cushion has taken forever...


...it's coming together and while not very fancy I hope my swapee likes it!



My sewing space needs sorting, I really need another set of shelves to stack my recent, and old, piles of vintage linen etc. I'm wondering too what to do with the twenty zips I picked up for a song at my local oppie. Any idea's?




I'm also loving these four pretty pieces of fabric which have come my way via my mum and the crowded, hot & colourful markets of Singapore. Oooh, how exotic! They are so sweet, perhaps they will become bunny bits?



The tail end of yesterday saw Bill & I making meatballs for dinner (and homework), a yummy way to end the day.


So my creative space is full lately, of old & new projects, lots of flavour and action, things unfinished and some complete, a sense of excitement at new ideas, the coming of cooler weather and changing seasons. A happy and inspiring space to be. Tell me about yours? Maybe I'll pop over to Kirsty's and see what you are up to. Bye for now sweetie pies, xo
