TODAY HAS BEEN ONE OF THOSE DAYS
Its pouring with rain making all the jobs i needed to do today that much harder. 'm supposed to be gardening, running errands (like need to be out in the car) and it is PISSING IT DOWN. Its Queensland (so subtropics for you not aussie people) and when we say rain we me RAIN.
Ive needed three outfit changes today because of the rain and mud while trying to run errands and appointments that i needed to run WITH the children so that makes it that much slower as well... grrrr
GRRRR PeakD
oh my.... and now i wrote another page here and for some reason PEAKD decided to loose it all in the save... grrrr... so lets rewrite it...
Mummy work time
So I guess it is my fault for going to bed last night without doing as much of the jobs for today as possible. You know in "mummy work time" between about 10pm and 1am... lol. When every other person is in bed lol. But i didn't ... sigh... I have work tomorrow so it needs to be done
Making a Presentation night dress
I also promised my big girl that i would make her a dress for her ballet presentation night. Sigh,,, so i better get on with that. It is Thursday and i forgot i am working Wednesday so it will shorten my time... but i feel i need a coffee and a sit down before i start that so that is just what i'm doing.
Here are the fabrics. I WILL blog about this when i do this.
I'm Using a BOO DESIGNS swimmer pattern (lol) to create the leotard style top . Then i am adding 4 layers of handkerchief cut tulle over a satin base to make a very floating draping dress.
It will have a bound straps that that go to a low cut back i have just cut the 1.5m of binding i need for this :-) yah... lol
time dependent i will have lots of bling and sequins and things to put over the embroidered tulle.
Should be fairly easy and look very flash i guess... but i better get on it as it is Tuesday here.. lol... so 2 days to go AND WORKING tomorrow as i say. lol
I will do a video blog about creating this :-) its easier than it looks i promise...
Meme designed my me...
ORIGINAL ART
This is one of my digital art pieces that i just love.
It seems to be the state of my mind at the moment. Multicoloured and everywhere. lol. Its actually a tiling desgin so that means it will tile over fabric and everything
Anyway thanks so much for stopping along and reading my posts I am just loving my HIVE experience so far. Such a fun platform for sure.
