heart finding...

Found in last weeks 99c a kilo market romas.

wedding flowers...

I've chosen dahlias, aren't they just lovely. The coloured pretties for me & the cream ones for the ladies. Without even trying, I managed to pick the cheapest flower in the shop. Yay! The wife of an old colleague is arranging them for me, she's a real gem. If you're lookin for a great florist... go & see Sonya at Vasette in fitzroy.

P.S. My computer is being awfully good at the moment, I'll have to catch up with some posts.

still here...

2 weeks to go til the big day... & I'm a bit snowed under. But this is to be expected, I'm sure.
Still have lots to organise... grog, food, an outfit for the groom, crafty things to be made, etc etc etc.
My computer is being troublesome & not letting my internet work. Hence the long time no post. I've been keeping up on current events though. I really wish I had time to visit all my blog friends who have fantastic stalls at the stitches & craft show. I saw y'all on Kerri-Ann, you were superb (I can't believe I just admitted to watching Kerri-Ann! Oh well.) Good luck to all of you, I know everyone will love you all.

I'm loving this interview with Tim James on Lucy's blog.

love fridays...

Very very tired today. But as the tinniegirl says... there is always something to love about friday.
The love today came from this purchase made at the Buttonmania sale in the nicholas building. I scooted in there before work this morning.
More love happened during work too. I was telling a table about the specials of the day, at the same time I was looking out the window across flinders st. Whilst discussing the mussel special, I exclaimed out loud that that was my bike & there was my man. The customers proceeded to look at me strangely & I'm sure they queried my rather loud outburst. But however, madness aside... it indeed was my man & my bike. He had come in to have some lunch & surprise me. It sure was a lovely surprise & it certainly helped me get through the rest of the day.
More love for the weekend too. Tomorrow is my ladies day, (I don't like being called a hen, so let's stick with ladies day) & I have no idea what is in store for me. I did tell my dear bridesmaids that there were to be no embarassing moments. I'm actually more worried what the boys will do to my dear Samuel. Oh well, fingers crossed.
Oh & I just forgot. Another reason for friday love... mixtape arrived in the mail & I just purchased the march country style too. So I look forward to some relaxing, couch lying, tea drinking moments with the two of them.

my creative space...

Took another trip to Amitie today. These three delightful fabrics will turn themselves into something wonderful for someone special. I also picked up some wadding & perle thread for the quilt I'm working on. I thought it to be quite serendipitous to discover the wadding is called matilda & the quilt itself is for a Matilda. The lovely Jane helped me again with rifling through the shelves for the ideal match. Thanks again Jane, this is thrice now you've helped me.
