  1. New blog post - in which I see a venn diagram, venture into the loft, and have an epiphany. http://tinyurl.com/yk832hh
  2. Haven't managed to accomplish a single thing today, but I feel much better for having a coffee and a good old natter with @hesitantcandy.
  3. Wrapping my sister's birthday present and a little pile of thank you gifts. So many little tasks to get through before the weekend...
  4. New blog post - in which I show you the 8 finished pieces (4 dresses, 4 skirts) that I've made for Tiger Lilly: http://tinyurl.com/ykrdecd
  5. @tillymynt Oh, just wedding planning frustrations. I'm sure it'll all be fine by the big day. (Saturday! Argh!)
  6. Trying not to spend the entire day hovering in that unpleasant spot between disappointment and fury.
  7. Just switched my @Etsy shop to vacation mode. I wish there was a way to temporarily disable orders without losing the entire shop!
  8. Excellent BBC programme on the history of posters - includes Harry Beck's Underground map. http://tinyurl.com/yh4n8t6
  9. I want to knit a pair of mittens that look like chameleon's feet. I'm thinking moss stitch and Noro, but which kind, and how much do I need?
  10. I found enough black cotton lycra in my fabric stash to make two new pairs of leggings. Now I don't have to go on holiday full of holes!
  11. Just been for a lovely walk around the lake. Saw a heron balancing on top of the world, and a brave little rat scavenging for breadcrumbs.
  12. Trying to pack for the honeymoon. Discovering that I have lots of clothes, but no real outfits. I tend to wear the same stuff all the time.
  13. Job fair would have been great if I wanted to be a firefighter or a social worker. Otherwise? Not so much. :(
  14. New blog post - in which I show you the circle skirt I made this morning, in a bold tulip print. Size UK 24-28. http://tinyurl.com/yjw3jdy
  15. Sewing like mad this morning, so I can make time to go to a job fair this afternoon.
  16. Thinking about too many stressful things at the same time. Wedding, honeymoon, job hunt... aargh. It's all feeling very complicated.
  17. New blog post - in which I show you the pink and black polka dot circle skirt that I've been making today. http://tinyurl.com/ygovqqs
  18. Speaking to a nice man about Neal's Yard's new home party plan shennanigans. Wishing I could afford to go on some of their courses.
  19. Oooh! The latest @EvansCycles catalogue tells me that there's a new branch in Reading! Bottom of Southampton Street, opens next Monday.
  20. More interesting stuff on the iPlayer - Jimmy Doherty tells us about all the processing our food goes through: http://tinyurl.com/yjtuuml
