My Creative Space.

Hello everyone! I've been a bad blogger over the past week or two but I have a really good excuse! This Saturday first time ever I'm going to have a stand at the Christmas markets in Goondiwindi! So for the past month I have been sewing my fingers to the bone.......literally!
I've had many late nights ( early mornings ), my house has been neglected.....it's a total mess from all my sewing projects which have been strewn from one end of the place to the other, my poor old Janome is in desperate need of a holiday......and so am I!!!!

I've decided that if all goes well and I want to do it all again next year.....I'm just going to build stocks up throughout the year instead of having a big rush at the end.

My fingers are sore, my feet are sore from standing in front of the ironing board for hours on end pressing some of the new goodies I've been making, but you want to know something? I have had the most fun creating all the goodies I need.

So my car is packed ready to go and tonight is the first time in a long time in which I haven't been sewing my little heart out after the kids went to bed........it feels kinda strange.

So wish me luck for my first markets......when I get back I'll have loads of pictures of all the new goodies to share so make sure you come back and have a look.

If you want to see more creative spaces head on over to kootoyoo and say hello!

Ooh, good luck with the craft fair and if you need a project once it's over maybe we could start a little Janome hospital for machines that need some TLC? I know mine would thank me... :)
