today...
I am feeling like this!
So I will just point you to my current giveaway (ends 16th Nov.) and also let you know we have more to give away at Le Challenge, which you can read about if you click here.
I'm hoping to get a good night's sleep after a little last minute sewing!
run down
**be sure to enter my Cotton + Steel bundle giveaway HERE**
It's that time of year when things get a little crazy, the to do list is never ending and it seems everything has to be done yesterday...
Or should have been done last month, like these ridiculously late bee blocks I finally sent to Helen today:

So sorry they are late Helen and I do hope I pressed them correctly!
Today I woke up feeling totally yucky and really run down. No fun at all but I listened to my body and slowed down a bit, which meant lots of snuggles and reading time with the little one:
She loves picking out books and wearing her crazy cardigan (knitted by my mother-in-law's friend). She adores the hello kitty buttons and I love that she looks like a little chick ;)
Today I got the cutest stickers that I ordered from The Reset Girl Shop, perfect timing to keep me motivated and organised.
They are gorgeous quality and so well made that I may have just placed another order, I can't help myself! The stickers are a matte finish, which I really like and they do plain ones for you to write on yourself (yes some of those were in my new order). She also sends them in the cutest packaging that now has me wanting some personalised stationery!
I'm going to go chug some Lucozade and gather the strength to cook tea.
Happy Monday lovelies :)
weekend of wips
I have made some good progress with the projects I'm doing but still have a lot to get on with!
Another quilt top finish this week, one I will be teaching at work. It's a Japanese + x quilt made with gorgeous Arizona by April Rhodes. It's not often I make a quilt using all one fabric line but I really do love Arizona. The colours are so beautiful and I love the Southwestern American theme.
Apologies the picture was taken in weird light - I'm so busy this was the best I could manage! I will get better pictures once it's all quilted. I really like how the navy plays with the paler colours and the wonderful scrappy effect this quilt has. Oh the mint Triangle Tokens print, which has gold metallic triangles too, is just so gorgeous!
Arizona is available online here and here, or if you're in the Stockport area pop into Patchfinders.
Have a great weekend!
*just a note, I really do have my hands full at the moment - preparing for back to school, lots of sewing, general life - so although I'm grateful to the people that have already asked me to be part of the Around the World Blog Hop, can I please ask everyone else playing along not to consider 'tagging' me because I will have to say no. I enjoy reading people blogs about why they sew etc but I have a full plate so I've decided to be a spoilsport. Thank you. I'm getting back to my WIPs!
