parole

With time out for good behaviour, (because I have NAILED two patterns over the weekend)

I have been making tea-cups for a display tea-set... 42 outer pieces and 42 inner pieces - just for the cups !

I once read, on a blog funnily enough, a person who said if they became ridiculously, embarrassingly rich then they would hire a cutter-outer....

If I were ridiculously embarrassingly rich (after I had dealt with world peace and poverty and all that)....I would hire a personal shopper, someone to go and buy all my clothes for me, organise them and tell me what to wear on which day, what matched and what to avoid...or if I were super really embarrassingly rich enough - I might just take to wearing pyjamas everywhere.

(I'm so superficial )

The Evolution of a teacup - series 2

Welcome once again, dear readers as we follow Jodie, the ever-optimistic crafter, in her continuing search for the perfect teacup.

Today saw our much harangued sewer delve once again into the teacup debacle that she has been studiously ignoring for a week.

This teacup dear readers in now in its 9th incarnation.

At this point things are looking good, but what you can't see readers, is the four different bases sewn and unpicked and the three different handles .

At the right angle, you can however, see the pin!
