This week should see me receiving a lot of trademe purchased fabrics, it's very exciting. One extremely onto it seller has already sent me the stuff, which is lovely!
After finishing the top of the girl baby quilt yesterday I started work on the boy baby quilt, which will be a squarey I Spy quilt. It won't be quite as long as the girl one which ended up kind of freakishly long, and will be just as bright and colourful. I made the first two squares a bit big so they're being put aside for an I Spy quilt for someone else.
I am looking forward to receiving the fabrics so I can wash them, iron them and immediately cut them into squares for the quilt. I'm especially looking forward to the planes and helicopters print I paid for this morning!
Lee dropped me at work today since my glasses are unwearable. The sweetie is taking them into an optometrist today for fixing. He was also planning a trip to Kapiti to assemble his Grandparent's computer, seeing the travel agent to book our honeymoon, consulting his father about bills and finally picking me up from work at 6. I suspect he's getting everything he can out of the way today so that he can blob out for the rest of the week!
We spent a lot of time yesterday morning looking at airfares and accommodation deals online and the difference we're paying to go through the travel agent is pretty minimal. I'm pleased because it means we can use it for a wedding register and people can pay whatever they like towards our honeymoon. Huzzah!
The tupperware-ing on Saturday was fun and produced the best chocolates ever omg! I am totally craving them so I'll have to make some of my own. If only I'd bought the mini muffin flexi form, I could make them so easily! Delish chocolate orange almondy goodness...*sigh*
Murder Mystery evening on Friday was good fun, although I'd like to go again with a different group. Our table was pretty fun but I'm not fond of the random drunkenness of strangers. If it was people I knew that'd be different. (heh.)
What else? This week is looking as busy as last week, which is tempting me to flake out on the Bookcrossers meet-up tonight. I'd like to go but I'm worrying about parking and I don't want to go out in the cold and what would I do about dinner? It'd be alright if Lee was playing squash because he could drop me off and pick me up on the way back but he's decided to have a rest tonight so it's all hard. Moan, whine, complain.
Right. I'm off to eat something.
