slow progress

They are still not lined. They have the backs attached and are pinned and waiting for the linings. I got kind of sidetracked yesterday by the excitement of starting a third one and that took precedence. I did have a little spare time to cut out the linings but.....my fabric scissors are wrecked, wouldn't cut butter. I suspect someone has been using them for such unmentionable tasks as cutting the rind off bacon...or clipping beards...or maybe even clipping toe nails...well thanks!!! They will cut, after a fashion, more like they will shred so today I am going out to buy some more and I will store those in a secure, alarmed box with explosive devices fitted. You have been warned.

puffs....

Saturday night, party, party, party.....well to be more precise, fabric, scissors, thread and stuffing. Now that's my kind of party. Look at all the puffs I made!! Can you tell which ones are my favourite. No prizes for guessing because I am soooo predictable.

These little cloth parcels will find their way onto my toe wrap. Some will be added to the surface, others to the edge. I haven't decided yet which way up I will put them but the reverse, the more open side is somehow more appealing, the pleats and gathers are so touchable.

I have big plans for the rest of my sunday. I will be abandoned later so the menfolk can go to the footy....bliss...all afternoon on my own and no cooking!! If they can swan off to the footy I can abdicate responsibility in the kitchen so it's take away!! Why can't there be football every day??? So the unmentionable will receive attention whilst the kettle constantly boils for my coffee and I roam alone in my little dwelling...

hope your sunday will be as wonderful as mine...
