Five Favourites…

Feeling Blah again today – I think my spleen hurts… can a spleen hurt?! Is there a doctor in the house..?! Anyway, to take my mind off the possibility of imminent & certain death, I’m playing along with Lovely Pip’s Five Favourites…

Three Birds & a Bike Oxfam dress from Clothkits – How. Cute. I am dying to make a Clothkits something but don’t have the $$$ to spare… ever.

These simple (simply wonderful!) crocheted sheep by crocheting machine Amanda of Pardon My Chaos… perhaps these are in my future for Bubba 2’s room.?

Nostalgic Pop Blythe – If ever there was a Blythe I’d quite like, thank you, this is she.

Vintage Office Rubber Stamp Kit from Fredflare – what’s not to like?

86 Sushi Tank from Rock Star Moms – as they say, if you can’t eat it (the raw stuff) you might as well wear it!

Wow… I DO feel better… thanks Pip!

Five Faves

Ooooh, I’m on a bloggy/meme roll this morning! I blame the weather & the fact that I did nae post yesterday…

Joining in for the first time with Pip’s ‘Five Faves’!

1. Growing anticipation for Stitches & Craft… this could be my number one until early next month! I have been waaaaaaaaaaaaaaiting & waiting… oh it’s going to be great. Proverbial kid in a candy store folks.

2. Weet-Bix. I have a renewed & perhaps unnatural love for this mushy breakfast cereal, toast just doesn’t cut it at the moment.

3. Sewing Clothes Kids Love – I got this last week & I don’t know about ‘kids’ but I am in love! Slightly disappointed to learn that the next print run will have patterns ala Ottobre, on stronger paper, whereas the copy that I have is all about old school tissue patterns that need fusible interfacing ironed onto it, but meh… as if I could have waited any longer. (Nancy’s blog is grand too, if you don’t have enough to do today…)

4. Changing seasons at the local oppy – Oh. Yeah. I wandered by last week & saw that from the “Everything 1/2 price” sale they’d gone to “Everything $1” to clear out all their stock. I went in. I bought clothes that could pass for maternity wear. I was happy.

5. Wool. After a visit to Spotlight to get the afore mentioned fusible interfacing, I am smitten & am just going to have to force my Gran into to teaching me how to use a stick or two into making something I might be proud of. It’s the weather for it after all.

Ah. That was fun! Thinking about my favourite things right now, and what has made me happy. You should do it too. You should.
