& the sound of bubbles.
You work all week, and do your best BUT your hanging out to go home and finish what you started on the weekend. The pattern from Melly and Me is wonderful. You can make it as bright as you like or (I found some lovely curtaining remnants) sedate. I am really pleased with how it is coming together and as an apprentice I am finding great satisfaction in putting it together. I have some ideas for designing bags and as you know the perfect handbag is the holy grail - i may never find it or make it BUT the challenge is half the fun. Finding material from op-shops and cast off clothes from friends has really set my imagination on fire. BUT i am determined to get more skills before I lurch into designing, of course finding the time out of the working week is also a challenge. Ah the joys of paying a mortgage and the bill collection.
The wonderful sound of cork escaping a bottle of bubbles can be heard from the kitchen and a glass full of Barrossa Sparkling has been placed in front of me - hmmmmm tuff choice. Cheers for now.
Do you know how Ive missed reading your writing(it has been a few years since Canada and long letters) I'm so glad that you have found your passion with fabric and that its going somewhere(fabric+ jo= beautiful handmade bags to SELL)and that you want to write about it for others to read. keep it up my talented friend
