summa this and summa that.

I admit it, I've been putting off blogging on account of the whole keyboard drama - I've still not got one sorted for my tower. So this is me on the Spouse's laptop while he's out cleaning his car with a brief roundup of the last few days.

I made this wee chap for my Sony eReader on Friday while watching "17 Again" (aye, Mrs Wookie, I am a multitasker while handsewing!). It is based on a tutorial from the Moda bakeshop which only needed a few wee dimensional alterations since my reader is a different size from the Amazon Kindle it was designed for.


I don't get on with the leather flippy cover the reader comes with so mine is in a groovy bounce-proof condom (safety first!) with a screen protector but I wanted something pretty to cart it about in and knew when I saw that Japanese Little Red Riding Hood fabric through the week that it was destined for here. Love that gormless wolf!

Saturday morning is riding and the Chook was magnificent on the very tall and extremely pretty Miss Molly. Heels down, lassie!!!

We had some free ranging time with our boys this morning. They are much slower than our girls so we're happy letting them run about the floor but it's still almost impossible to get a good photo of them. I got lots of bums!! This is Zep's.

But I got one profile of pretty Wilson. Ignore the dust bunnies under the radiator if you please!!

And I spent the afternoon quilting Freddie's Pinwheels. It is done!! But I've not enough solid black for binding. So I need to shop before it's finished - pants!

I'm about to fling Chookie in the bath and commence stacking 30's reproduction coins. Yay!!

  4. Love the stylized wolf! He's super cool. I didn't know you had a reader, I'm jealous. I want one, too, but I hate the thought of paying for the books, I'm too broke all the time.

    The boys are adorable, look at those chubby bums! lol

    And the Chook is looking very fine- maybe she should be a jockey?

Hi! I'll try really hard to reply to comments by email (unless you're a no-reply Blogger in which case I can't!) because I love getting your messages but I'm a working mum and don't always manage - I read and appreciate every single one!
