taking the day off

yesterday evening i decided i would take friday off. work has been very tiring lately - well for the last 8 mounths and i just need a break. even if it's just a day.

my plans for today are:

• grocery shopping


• fabric shopping


• check out some sewing machines at the local shop (i need a new one as i've decided not to get the old one repaired)


• finally(!) bring the old clothes and shoes to the caritas


• clean apartment


• do washing

and finally if this is all completed before supper time get some sewing done... so i have enough to do. I'm allready dressed and just about to start the cleaning bit.

I just wanted to show you some recent work i was able to finish...

1) a host-present for a dear friend (i stayed there in march - feel really bad that it took so long to get accomplished)

2) And then there is a little nisse i saw here and fell in love with him immediately. when i wa about to stich the little face i thought he looked as if he wanted to be a cheeky nisse. so i gave him a litle tongue and i'm still thinking about a little earing in one of his ears. he still need clothes so there is some time left to think about the earing...

I'll be back with some lovely pictures from the weekend, take care t:t
