Heyhey everybody :D
sorry I haven't posted in a couple of days. my life hasn't been very post-worthy. well last night kind of was but I was busy so yeah.
So basically one of my relatives from NZ is going back to NZ tomorrow so yesterday my parents chucked them a going-away party. Basically it was an excuse for me to eat crap loads so I wasn't complaining :D I was cooking and cleaning with my sister ALL morning and some of the afternoon. We had a lamb on a spit and it was soooooo gooooot. I want it EVERYDAY :D

I also finished another skirt. Its another Playskirt but in a different material. I think I'm going to sew a dress next but I need to go spotlight so I can get the right pattern. PLUS I get 10% off because I joined their club WEEEEEW :D I technically joined twice because they didn't send me my confirmation email ...is that a sign? :(
Well heres some photos, I know it still looks retarded but it looks better than the last..right?


Well, if there's anything to report is that I'm getting really really lazy. I should go gym. It's a shame that stupid fitness first thing fell through. THE MANAGER NEVER EVEN CALLED ME :( well thats all for today. I told you, nothing post-worthy. Hope this weeks much much better :D until next time xx

RAWR :D
Well today was a very VERY productive. I sewed another skirt!!!
I'll add photos tomorrow because I still need to stitch on the clasps to hold the band. Its another Melanie's Playskirt but in different material :) its considerably better but the hem at the bottom and the zip are somewhat worse, mainly because this time I actually did it myself and didn't get my mum to so YAY FOR ME :D It took me about 6 hours, plus what I'm going to take tomorrow so I'm getting considerably better :D YAY FOR ME.
I also borrowed One Day from the library which was on my to-read list these holidays. I didn't get to read anything today but hopefully tomorrow after I finish sewing. I'm thinking on doing a dress next but I need to buy the pattern plus more material than I normally would :( CREYZ. Taking too much of my munz. Oh well. When I'm pro and can sell some I'll make more money than ever before. WOOOH. yay for capitalism.
Well thats all for today. Hopefully tomorrow will be a bit more eventful. bye for now (:

Well today was a great day :)
I went to the pools with Sophie and we swam and got tans :D WOOOOOOH :L I even started reading Heart of Darkness for extension which is good...I read like 4 pages and got bored. ITS GOING NOWHERE. Which is ironic because they're on a boat...SHOULDN'T THEY BE GOING SOMEWHERE D: D: D:!

• 2 pockets, deep enough for phones, ipods, hands etc.
•  Zip and clasps to secure band.
• A band (elastic optional but not preferrable) to allow for shirts/singlets to go over or inside

Its below the knee and cotton. Once I've perfected it I might start selling some if enough people are interested. I'll also be changing the patterns regularly but this flower playskirt is so cute. I love it :D

Also, I think I'm slowly getting dementia. You see, I have so many things to tell people like Kyleen and Luke whom I don't talk to often and when I finally do...I can't remember D: D: D: and I end up looking like a fool...well in my eyes anyway. Or maybe I just haven't talked to Luke in ages :( oh well, we'll soon see if it actually is dementia..or my brain chillin' in holiday mode :D
