The two I listed tonight are:
This first one is a vest that drapes down the front...I added the capped style sleeves cos I know I like to cover my arms a little.

This next one if the cardy I posted a pic of the sample one last week, this is the finished product, with the huge but very cute button attached :)

I've felt really good this evening - in my mind 'good' - like a lot of stress has been lifted. As sad as it sounds, I think it's cos my dad has left, he was here for 7 weeks. And also, remember my lil bro had been living with us, but 2 weeks after dad arrived he moved out...so it's like this is the first time in a LONG time that it's truly only been just me, hubby and the kids!! LOVING IT!!
And I am looking forward to winter - believe it or not!! I'm looking forward to the rain, the wind - snuggling up in winter clothes, being indoors while it's pissing down with rain outside!
I'm looking forward to buying a pair of gumboots and wearing them to my boys' league games lol. I just love being snugly!! If it's anything like last winter, I'm gonna feel the cold something wicked, but I'm prepared!! Gonna make me some gorgeous 100% merino tops, especially want to make a plain black one, long sleeves to wear under other tops...that is for a start. Will get onto that when I get back from Samoa in 5 weeks.
In the mean time I need to get onto making me a couple of gorgeous sexy tops/dresses to wear in Samoa - planning on going out a lot with hubby, so needs some 'hot mama' dresses lol. This week though i want to focus on getting some tops made to sell on TM - mama needs spending money!! Then next week it'll be too late to list really as I'll be leaving in two weeks, so in the last two weeks I'll work on my tops/dresses.
But I'm also starting to get sidetracked!! Have come across a couple of merino baby items on Tm going for ridiculous prices!! I am thinking of making a couple of blankies...see how that goes. God they'd be simple as heck to make, and they could prove to be a good seller - I'll make a couple and see how they go.
Oh and I've been smoke free ALL evening - ALL DAY! YAY!! Don't even feel like a smoke - but I have noticed that I've been quite HYPO today LOL - god that sounds stupid!! But i have been, noticed I've been talking quite fast...non-stop. Don't know if it's cos I'm all of a sudden happy, or if it's my way of withdrawing from the smokes?? Who knows lol. Too much happening in my head I think!!
S L O W down!! Breath.
So yep...it's nearly 10pm, I've had a long HOT shower, washed me hair, moisturised, have my huge winter gown on, I feel so toasty and COSY - love this feeling!!
I'm going to go and do a bit of tinkering in my sewing room - which also happens to be my bedroom lol - I should take pics huh...shame LOL. But hey, work with what you have right?
