Sorry for not posting in a while - I've been on holiday. The past week and a bit has been a whirlwind of planes, busy cities, beaches, boats, and food in the beautiful country of Thailand... but because I'm a Melbourne girl through and through and I miss my home, my family (especially my Mum after her stay in Sydney) and my friends so I am planning on coming home.
Pictures of my trip will be up soon.
Who would have thought I'd miss my daily routine so much!

Two small projects. One Big Obsession.
With the weather being so cold, I have been spending a lot of time inside. The cosy couch, with a quilt and the heater going is just too inviting. It's been great! I have been doing a lot of small projects sewn by hand which is so relaxing!
An example of the paper piecing I mentioned in a previous post. I have really been enjoying it. I'm still not sure if I want to try and do a hexagon quilt (afraid it will take me 100 years)! I have appliqued 2 of the smaller ones onto linen to turn into a project for the shop (more on this later). I've also enjoyed fussy cutting some fabrics for the hexagon flowers!
I love Hello Kitty. I'm not sure when my love for her started, and at the age of 23 I sometimes wonder why I find her so cute... but why deny myself? So I decided to do some stitching on white linen of a simple Hello Kitty that I plan to stretch over a frame, and put in my bedroom. I think it's adorable.
I am a little worried though. This is my phone cover.
And these are my keys...
I wonder when I will grow out of this obsession and move onto the next? And with my up and coming trip to Thailand, where I am assured there's truckloads of Hello Kitty stuff... Will I grow out of it?

Inspiration
There are some lovely books at work, but these 2 have really caught my eye.
They're full of cute, quick projects and are beautifully styled with great photos. They're truly inspired me to think outside the box when it comes to my projects!
Both are currently available in store at Amitie Textiles.
