Thanks so much for the sweet and encouraging comments and emails regarding the magazine. You are really sweet!!
What have I been up to this week? I've been sewing crazy.

I bought all these pieces of CK discounted fabrics between November 2006 and now for all kinds of various little projects, but I've been too occupied with other things to get round doing these "odd" jobs. Oh yes tidy girls can make a mess too. Not for long though, I'm anxious cleaning everything up while I'm writing this post.

I've made this slipcover for my little Fifties leather sky chair. Boo went a little bonkers on the leather so it needed a cover. I bought this piece of fabric with Cherry two weekends ago in London. It was exactly 2 meters and 25% off. I love stuff like this. You all know how I love my slipcovers ( I only own two chairs in the whole house that are upholstered). So this one I can take off again and wash it when it needs to.

I also made these seating cushions for the chairs I have outside. I bought these Seventies wicker chairs at the local recycle store for just 5 Euro with a matching glass table. I used to have them indoors but after seeing Driving Lessons (buy it, it's fantastic) I put them outside.

I love them! Most of the day the sun is shining in this little corner, it's just lovely for relaxing, drinking a cup of tea and listing to the Driving Lessons Soundtrack, it's so good!
Ok I'm off. I need to clean that utility room otherwise the fabrics might take over the room, start a revolution, build barricades and I'll not be able to get in again.
Happy easter people :o) |
