hugs OMG!! I know, it is super rare! Thank you so much! ^^

anytime my friend <3

So here's the peacock bag I made. Front Back, I sewed the top piece of the front panel on the bottom so it matched :D Inside: As you can see there's a pouch inside to hold my water bottle. And the stripes are to make the inside large enough for the outside lol. Didn't have enough of the lining fabric. I'm thrill how it turned out though. It is larger than I planned but I couldn't bear to cut down that front much

This is the fishfood basket I made once I had to move my plant thanks to Lucy and Nigel:

The ball I made:

thanks :D I wanted to try some of the new items :D I love the library / paper aeroplane look today! :D :D :D

sits and admires your HA :D Hopefully the job is going well, and you get to see some great birds on your trip! :D Thanks :D I'm planning on making another bird plushie, but I can't decide if it should be an Ostrich, or a Flamingo :P

thank you for letting me know the old one was locked! ;) That sounds like you've got quite a lot of restrictions then! How long are you not allowed to do that for? squishes hehe well, there is that too ;)

whoa, that's a striking outfit! What's the background(s) you've used today? :D That peacock bag looks stunning!! That's the perfect placement for the peacock panel bit on the front too :D :D and the drawstring inside pocket looks awesome - I might have to 'borrow' that idea when I make my next bag ;) I love the colours on the fishfood basket, the bees are a perfect contrast for the sunflowers :D Do the cats try getting into the food container, or is that just to hide the food from your sight to make it a bit neater looking? ANd the ball looks awesome too - how did youg et on getting all those edges to line up properly? :D

I love the cute bad,. ball, and fish food basket! i have to say I am most in love with that CUTE fabric on that fish food bag - both fabrics! AND I love the little decorations on the counter with the bag, such a cute little area. :D

Thank you! ^^ I love how you've matched the wall paper inside the house like that - it is so clever!

why thank you :) Oh, this is with (a bday gift) and on top. thank you :) I have more to show but might have to wait to show some things. I couldn't bear to cut more of the peacock fabric down lol. It was a panel. haha go for it. I sewed below the drawstring and i made an X in the back of the bag to help keep it secured to the final bag. It was a bit tricky getting the drawstring bag inside the arm to do the small X but got there in the end. thanks :D I thought since there were bees in the sunflower fabric that it worked well lol.
No, not really. I did it to make it look nice and cover the food up. the ball was surprisingly easy. You make two sections like a flower. Then sew the sides together on both parts. The most finicky part is sewing the two sections together, which still wasn't bad. I followed the tutorial and finished fairly quickly.

thank you :) isn't it adorable? So happy :) and thank you I love the peacock design too. Oh thank you lol :) I like my fairy, dragons, bunny and frogs xD how are you today?

surgery went well. Except feeling very ill. At my mums resting now. :) hope you guys are well. :hugd:

feel better soon dear

thanks :D Once I saw those wallpaper backgrounds, I splurged on one of the outside walls so I could get the look I was aiming for laughs :D

I hadn't realised that was three different things, it all works brilliantly!! :D That was perfect for making it into a bag then :D :D notes that down :D I'd be wary the seams would just fray on the ball while I was turning it right-side out! :P

yawns I think I did a bit too much sewing today laughs I had to stop, as the lining fabric isn't here yet, so I can't do any more on that project until it arrives ;)

I'm glad it went well squishes gently Hopefully you'll be feeling better soon :)

yeah the music notes have a filter on them which makes it really versatile :D hope it goes well if you make one :D Mine didn't, so I think you'd be okay :) what project? xd

the notes do look really awesome :D I'll have to give that a go (and the ball) at some point ;)

A showerproof jacket like the softshell one I made earlier this month, but this time it's made from a lightweight polyester, so it should be ideal for summer :D I've got some spotty polycotton fabric on order (I was going to use plain, but the spotty was the same price), plus some star-shaped poppers :D I got the polyester fabric for free, as this is a product testing thing again ;)

I started out ok but the past few hours I've been having stabbing pains. :( I really can't function. I feel so bad because my family wants me to do some work with them in the garden and help but I'm in a lot of pain. I feel guilty. :( How are you post birthday day?! BTW did you manage to beat that new CS challenger, assuming you got it? Did you get it?

Oh, yes, it was worth it because it looks amazing!

I agree, they are awesome. It’s surprisingly easy. OOH awesome :D great price too. Sounds like it’ll be amazing.

Aww I’m so sorry –hugs- Don’t feel guilty. You can’t do it, you can’t do it –snugs- Had a pretty bad day so far. I’ve been trying all day to make the gift my brother sent me work. It’s a really neat clock that I asked for—however, I can’t stand it. It’s so freaking bright that it bothers my eyes immensely. I’m talking about brighter than a large Christmas tree type bright. It’s brighter than our nghtlights. I had to cover it last night and finally found a spot that it works in, but the cover is hard to get on—its just been a nightmare that made me wound up sobbing. I just can’t put anymore into this damn clock. It’s not worth it.

I haven’t gotten the challenger yet though I do want to. Just short on csc again lol. I did get one copy for a gift yesterday, but I’m using in the wardrobe.

and speaking of amazing, I love the pinks and blues in your outfit today! :D :D

hehe free is always a good price laughs My summer shorts & dress I made for the last product testing don't go on their blog until September 13th, so my 'summer jacket' will most likely go live on their blog in the autumn.... which does make it more complicated when it comes to writing the blog post!

hehe your HA looks like she has a few kitties to look after today ;) Another new character, or is this just a random character-less HA today? ;)

As a side note, that Biting Cake is more challenging than you'd think, given the stats - randomly you don't get to use any weapons for one go.... and of course that means if you're relying on healing weapons, you need to have some decent scrolls for those turns! ;)

indeed. LOL that sounds complicated, but since you can scheduled them maybe not so bad?

lol she sure does. Well new for here. It's Jovy's 2 year old daughter. She adores cats, but she's hard to make because most HAs look at least 16 o.0 but I tried lol. I wanted to play with some new shinnies.

I have 8 void scrolls that should help, though I know it doesn't freeze so the pycho smashers and shrieks won't help

Great biking ha! <3

nods because it's going up on the fabric shop's blog, I have no real clue when they'll schedule it for, until I submit the finished thing, so I didn't know for the summer dress that their first available slot would be mid September, until I'd written my summery blog post :P

Aww that's a sweet idea :D And yeah, I can see why it's challenging, given the age of the character! ;)

Those void scrolls should definitely help with that one! ;)

Thanks :D This is yesterday's outfit still - I was lacking inspiration first thing :P

Haha.. never even heard of the game, will have to google. xD What game are you exchanging it for? :) Except for not hearing much since they operated on my good ear- and being restricted on what I am allowed to do.. no washing my hair, no bending down to the floor- no heavy lifting.. I am okay. :) I guess I will be watching a lot of telly. Only texted programs tho.. since I am not able to hear well at all. lol

Restricted for 3 weeks at least.. then I am having a checkup at the hospital to hopefully get cleared to start living life normally again. :fingers crossed: :) this is gonna be a bit of a pain. Since they operated on my better ear- I cant hear much either. o-o I am feeling a lot better today tho. :)

OH I hope you can beat the challenger if you do get it! :D hugs tightly I am so sorry that it frustrated you so much! That has happened to me too. Sometimes you just have to put it away and not touch it again for a long time (or ever). :( It stinks a lot because you wanted it too! :( How is it bright, in what way I mean? Perhaps you have to move it someplace where you don't look at it at night? I am really sorry. :(

Thank you so much! <3 hugs I think your HA is so adorable! :D

Er, try that I again, I think I’m lost lol.

Yeah, but she’s just so cute lol I wanted to do something for her XD

Heres hoping :D and hope I can get the challenger soon.

The crafting ha looks great too!

He meant to get it and My time at Portia. :) Is the closed canal permanent or hoping to help make hearing easier? Hope all goes well for your recovery.

I’ll get it eventually lmao. I’m not good at letting things go. this is without any lights on in a dark room! It’s insanely bright and hurts my eyes even in the day time! Also has a short cord and that limits where I can put the stupid thing. I’ve given up and told my brother so we can return it.

I can imagine you'll be counting down the days until you can get back to normal! Is Pusur being co-operative with sitting on your lap, to make sure you don't do anything you shouldn't? ;)

and this outfit looks awesome as well I love the watercolour feel of that background :D Thanks :D I was short on ideas, so I thought Niamh should get a chance to do some crafting ;)

sits and admires your HA that looks stunning! :D hehe ok: the fabric shop run their own blog. They send out fabric for free, as long as we write a blog post for them - we email what we want to say, then they schedule it on their blog. So I had to write the summer shorts / dress blog post & email it to them, without knowing when the next available slot on their blog would be. So what I've written for a summery blog post, is going on their blog in September :P I'm going to write this next one as if I've already worn the coat in the summer (I hope we get some rain at times, otherwise that'll sound stupid!), and say how good it's going to be for autumn too 😇

thank you <3 Niamh looks pretty nice today :) OOH now I get it lmao.
Makes sense :)
