Finally Friday

I was really looking forward to my sewing class today so I could finally get my cushion covers finished and I did. Yay!! They look brill even if I do say so myself! I'll have to get a pic of my playroom so far so you can see the overall effect. Might have to finish painting the walls first though lol!

I also got the organising bug from my tutor, who spent the entire 2 hours sorting out the storage cupboard. I was the only one who turned up and it was a mess. Looks fab now though! I finally got round to sorting out the tall kitchen cupboard which now just needs a child proof lock on it. I also sorted out the storage cupboard with a bit of help from Craig. It's still packed full but at least it isn't sticking out of the top too much now. Wish I had an attic space I could shove all the stuff in.

I've done loads on my WIP this week but am struggling with the metallics. Good news though - a member of my Yahoo group ILCS kindly enabled me to buy new needles from this fab needle shop. It only cost me £2.30 for 10 individually wrapped size 24 gold plated needles inc. P&P. I ordered them last night and they were posted today! Just hope they're the right ones cos I wasn't 100% sure on the size. I like to get the small or petite ones especially if I'm stitching on evenweave. I'll have to add the shop to my links.

Gonna do an hour stitchin while watching Corrie now :)

Can never go wrong with gold plated needles! I've already dealt with the organization bug and he's back again!

Don't be silly I didn't mind at all! As for my cupboards I've been meaning to do them for months so it was a good thing you got me in mood to face them. :)
