hopefully Mouse won't get too jealous ;) Maybe he can help Mouse learn how to deliver packages properly, rather than bouncing them off people's shoulders :P

well, I figured she can't be perfectly trained - I mean she was trained by a family of werewolves after all :P

Given the way RP-Paddy's Uncle likes practical jokes, he probably trained Mouse to do that anyway :P

yes actually hopefully both. I was just about to see if I could get some more sleep (2 hours so far) and if I'm still feeling okay, then was gonna work on my orange tank top. I've also got the llama started even though camel is almost done lol. You?

whoa, you've started to get like me with starting projects before you've finished another one! :P That sounds like a great plan though :D :D

I'm hoping to head out this afternoon (the chocolate shop sent me a voucher for a free (small) slab of chocolate for my birthday, and I want to pick out a decent flavour), but tomorrow I might either see if I can trace off the pattern for the strappy vest t-shirt thing, or have another go at tracing the tunic top, but with a slightly larger neck & definitely larger on the sleeves (my chest might be a size 8, but my arms are more like a 10 or 12 :P) - I couldn't move without feeling I was going to rip the fabric 😊 :P

laughs Mum's friend sent me a knitting / sewing project bag, so I can at least keep my sewing UFOs tidy now ;) And how nicely does the fur knit up? ;)

:D I might also sneak in a fabric order, to get that canvas and possibly their bargain bag of dressmaking fabric (20 metres, at least 1 metre of each thing - lucky dip, so it might all be lime forest, but hoping that it'd be nice colours) ;)

awesome!! :D That's always nice when the yarn works exactly like you hoped it would :D :D

It's 15 quid (about 20 dollars) for the fabric, but even with postage, that's less than a quid per metre, so it wouldn't be too terrible if there were a few bits that I wasn't too keen on ;)

pretty happy cos its not acutally the one Alan calls for. But I googled and saw the texture and found some at Joanns that looked almost a dead ringer xD -nods- and you can use those less liked colours for people who do like it

that's even better! :D Sometimes the yarn he used is discontinued by the time the pattern gets into the magazine / onto his website, so sometimes he suggests an alternative, but being able to find one in the shop yourself is even better :D

nods very true :D And it wouldn't matter if there was some stretchy fabric, as I feel a smidge more confident with that now ;)
