Phew !! Out of the first trimester.....

....and feeling like today is the first time I have had any energy to work in the evening. For the last 3 and a bit months I could be found unconscious in bed by 8pm or near unconcious lounging on the sofa in front of crap tv. Hence the lack of activity in my etsy shop - on this blog and anywhere else you may find me in this crazy world of social media. Today though was a good day - I finally got to list my new tea cozies in my store - finished off a whole slew of sewing that had been haunting me for a month - hemmed a curtain for a friend AND finally tonight mixed up a very sweet new blue that had popped into my head last week sometime. I just knew this was the right shade for a giraffe flag gift for a new baby arrival. NOW the only issue I have is that I have no idea how I finally ended up with this colour. It was the result of lots of adding and redistributing the main mixes - so I will have to do the same process again I'm sure. Sometimes though it is fun to just go with your instincts and worry abt the details later - especially when you have been such a slug for so long. Ahh it is nice to be back and to feel the whiff of motivation again - pls stay Mr energy - just for a few more months!!
