Having just created my blog this is a quick post before I do something more substantial tomorrow and post some photos of the bits I've been making this week - blueberry jam, pink cupcakes, a clothkits dress for baby Grace and an apron for me made out of the same laura ashley fabric I used for my kitchen blinds using an original 1950's pattern.
Today some fusible interfacing and fleecing arrived which I need to do my laptop envelope idea for the magazine commission.
A large noticeboard briefly arrived then went away again as it was damaged. It did occur to me, as the stranger in the UPS uniform beckoned me into his heavily fortified van to agree it was damaged (and not perhaps a strange piece of modern art), that I could be about to be abducted but this was largely the result of watching too many episodes of CSI. This is the one I want to cover with fabric and use as an ideas board - never thought it would be so difficult to get some low density board to do the job!
Tomorrow I need to sort out which pictures/photos/fabrics I take to my framing weekend course in Manchester. Will have to pop to CDS to get some photos printed especially as my new printer is producing poorer quality prints by the day (although I'm sure I'll be told its not properly calibrated).

- Having qualified as an accountant in 2002 - a career where creativity is rewarded with a 7 year prison sentence (creative accounting = fraud) I have to get my creative juices flowing in other ways. This blog is where I am recording my creative activities in words and pictures whatever they may be - fabric, paper, canvas, food and anything else that might arise.
