More Sock Monkey goodness


Here is Laila's sock monkey which I just finished. Loving the stripy colours :) I think she likes it - has been chewing on it lol!
Got word back from Fiona re the bookmarks. Apparently they LOVE them! Hopefully they will pay me soon as I've been a naughty girl ordering some custom stuff from Kirrily (Totel Bag, Day Tripper Bag and some mama pads)!! So excited about those. Our current nappy bag is old and faded and has a fluoro yellow stripe. Shall we say stylish pffft!!!
Pizza tonight for tea because I can't be assed cooking. Got a scratchy throat too :(
Better fly - Laila is scooting around the floor collecting dust bunnies for me - ooops!

Cold :(

So the cold finally caught me! Thought I was going to escape it but nooo. Of course I got it worse than the rest of the family - typical.



Have been freaking out about the bookmark beading job. Trying to source the right beads is proving next to impossible and now looks like the closets to what I want will have to be sourced from the U.S. argh. This means added time taken up for shipping it out here and doesn't leave much time for the actual work. I am going to have to committ to significatly less than they want although I can't imagine why a library wants 2000. Especially when they find out the cost!



Anyway it is stressing me out a bit.



Today Keith has taken James and Laila out shopping to give me a bit of time to myself. Bless him :) So far I haven't done anything except eat honeycomb yoghurt and drink tea (and browse online). I've been looking at wool dying links. Would love to have a play with that sometime!



Trying my hand at some fleece pants for Laila at the moment too. Not sure how they will turn out lol!



Ok I need another cuppa again ;)
