oooops.....

oh dear.....it's been waaaaay too long since I've been on here. The summer just disappeared out from under me in a haze of exhaustion and nausea, and since I've been feeling better I've been distracted by a million things and haven't been taking pics or sewing etc. However, things are looking up, I've just recently gotten my sewing area upstairs all sorted out and have made a couple of bags over the last few weeks. Also even took a few pics and, more importantly got them uploaded from the camera onto here, so that is major progress. The course that I have been doing for the past 8 weeks is almost over - 2 weeks to go, and once it's over and the final assignments/project are completed, I will be home free to spend some 'me' time making and doing again - at least until late feb/early march when bubs will (please God!!) make an appearance and will stall all that, possibly for several years !!!!! Might as well try and get in as much 'me' time as possible then !

Sewed a nice bag for Bev - got the fabric in a tiny fabric shop in Dublin in June and it's VERY orla kiely so really love it. Have a little bit left but can't decide what to make as it's so lovely - just my cup of tea:)

Also sewed a nice bag for Keeva which I haven't sent her yet, eventhough her birthday was last week - bad sister in law I am. Must also snap it before I send it to her - love the fabric on that too, a blue patterned home dec one I got in New Ross months ago.

I think I may have a fabric addiction......is there such an organisation as fabricholics anonymous, coz I really need to join. Have a little shipment on way from USA at the mo....and I cannot WAIT !!!

OK, best finish now and try and get back into blogging gradually. Heading off tomorrow for my course - would much rather spend the day tinkering with the sewing machine but can't be helped!!
