Love Fridays


bath time, originally uploaded by jek in the box.

It's raining outside my window, and I got a bit soggy when Chris and I just went out in search of a coffee...I had planned to post a rainy photo but when I saw this one of Jek's, I loved it, and thought it would brighten everyone's day up.

Loving Friday, I plan to have a well earned rest tonight, and maybe do some stitching, tomorrow see some friends, and on Sunday go to the Art Deco exhibition with the Knitting Knazi.

And there will be laundry, but not as sweet and whimsical as Jek's.

Big Cat loves Fridays.  And so should you...play along!

Vintage thingy Thursday on Friday

As I didn't get time to do my vintage thingy post yesterday, here's something that needs little explanation. DIY fashion from Australian Dolly magazine, early '70s.

Hand it over, hand it over

This photo from the Shorpy blog reminded me of Curlypops shopping at Spotlight. Or the Mixtogether girls at Amitie last Saturday. Har har!

Come out and meet the one that you love

My (very drunken) sis just sms'ed me and asked me to come to this gig.  Oh, the Wreckery, you were one of the lurves of my teenage years.  Hope ECJ is still a spunk.

Nothing's changed, I still love you

...only slightly only slightly less than I used to, my love.

After my Friday night efforts at making a journal, which went to this nice chick, I was feeling a bit crafted out.  And at Mixtogether I boofed around loudly more than I crafted (sorry peeps if I annoyed you)...today I tried some crocheting with a tiny hook and some cotton, but just couldn't be arsed anymore after I made a little 2 inch granny square.

Have I lost the mojo?  Right now, I don't want to sew or knit, I want to play the guitar.  Only problem is, I don't know how.  Be very grateful that you don't live with me.

I started something

This week's theme : This is ... a work in progress.

Or in my case, many.

patchwork throw in progress

This pic was taken Easter 2008...still not finished.  My quilt using hand printed fabric by the "local gals".  Needs to be backed and quilted.

my stitching @ Brown Owls

From Brown Owls in July...still not finished.

WIP quilt on couch 1

My dog's breakfast quilt, still a wip. I'm not too fussed about this one though, as it's just a scrap recycling one...so it grows slowly.

WIP

Some stitching that was supposed to turn into a Heart for Mirabel...yes, remember months ago. *shame*

WIP amy butler quilt

Last year's Winter project, a hand pieced quilt. The top is about 80% finished.

progress of sock knitting

My first pair of socks, and one of last year's resolutions...not finished.

cardi back

One of this year's knitting projects.

And these are the WIPs I just happened to have pics of on Flickr. There's lots more lurking around the house. And my Tour de France challenge cardi which I haven't finished yet either.  Talk about FAIL with a capital "F".  Yikes!

Playing with Mixwit after Mixtogether. (Don't worry peeps, I didn't put any Britney on there.)

Some silliness, some Smiths songs, some strumming...And one of the best versions of Thunder Road I've heard - that one's for you Jane.
