Only a week until my next market stall

Have quite a bit of stock now - bags and purses. Looking forward to showing Shauna and hearing her suggestions for new sewing ventures when she arrives in Hobart tomorrow. What fun we are going to have this weekend. Hope the weather improves. Our roof leaked yesterday, late afternoon, with drips coming in all over the place...husband up on roof in dark in pouring rain clearing gutters as I gaily drove off for bookclub (not really good wifey move!)

Here's a pic of Rhubarb looking his usual non-plussed self, despite being cosied up to my luverly new cushion cover.

And here's some pics of recent tote bags and purses:

Careful what you wish for...

I’ve been saying for a while now that “I’d like to give up my day job” to take up my millymaking pursuits fulltime – and my recent bout of the flu and being off work for nearly two weeks made me begin to wonder if I might not be homebound for some time. So no dear Universe I don’t want to give up my day job because I am sick or GFC-have to – I want to eventually give up my day job because my millymaking has become a very profitable and growing concern!!!

Very excited to have been accepted to be part of the next Independent Art and Design Market happening in Hobart on 7 June. I will be madly sewing this weekend and many nights during the coming weeks. Have been making some rather groovy potholders. Did I say that? (In my wild youth I didn’t imagine I’d be capable of saying such a thing!) They have turned out rather well and have also created another rash of totes and handbags.

Flu remnants begone – too much sewing to do!
