OH YES, A LAZY DAY AHEAD...

OH YES, A LAZY DAY AHEAD...

Well... after such a busy, hot weekend... I'm so happy I can do bugger all today!

AND bugger all is what I really am going to do!

I might read some blogs... I might watch a movie on the telly... hell I might even lie in the sun (if it's not TOO hot)...

It's the last week of school.... and then we have something like 6 and a half weeks off... with kids home.  Like THAT'S gunna be fun.  *sigh*
But, we all need a break from the routine... and I am (for once) looking forward to it!

Weird me saying that eh?  But it's true... I want to be able to just relax and not have to worry about getting kids to school/speld lessons... and I'm also taking time off  from the Hospice Shop too.... well,  someone needs to look after B & G eh?

I can't imagine a day when I can do whatever I want without having to look after little kids!  So far I've been at home with little kids for ..oh.... 31 years, 11 months, 1 week and 1 HOUR!  Let's not worry about the minutes eh?   lol

ONWARD... Let's start being lazy!  Or not.... I just remembered that I can 'make up' missed Patchwork lessons by going on a Monday AND Tuesday... so I am going this morning.

 ABOVE:  this is the room we use for our Patchwork mornings... it is a room off Fabricland, Papakura... the best thing about this class is that if you need anything it's right there!  You don't have to wait until you can go to the shop to get it...

ABOVE:  This is the 'best' part of the shop... where all the patchwork fabrics are.... *drool*.  She doesn't have as much as some other shops I've been to, but it's OK. 

So, ONWARD..... got to empty my car from yesterday before I can go anywhere!

Class today was FUN!  We were told to bring along 4 fat quarters as we would be making a bag!  Well.... that was right up my street, so I grabbed some fabric and this is what I ended up with:

 ABOVE:  isn't it just adorable?  The pattern called for hard handles, but I just made fabric ones to keep the cost down.  That buckle is to die for:

ABOVE:  *BLING* !  *smiles*.... I think I will be keeping this bag....

Time for lunch... and maybe relax for a while!

Donna:  my tutor's name is Lynn... Gloria used to teach at Fabricland but has just retired.

Ummm... I had lunch... then I fell asleep!  Must have been tired.... off now to make the pattern for that bag.

End of Day:  well I did rather more than I intended today... but that's how it goes eh?  nite nite.
