Yesterday some of the fabric that I order online arrived. I am loving the colors and patterns of these and can’t wait for the rest of what I ordered to arrive. I am thinking a sundress out of the animal print (inspired by a L.A.M.B. dress that I cannot afford:), maybe some purses, a summer top out of the gray fabric, and a skirt or dress out of the white/blue print on the far right.

Unfortunately one of my other fabric packages is sitting in a UPS center waiting to be delivered, but was delayed today due to emergency conditions out of UPS’s control. Hmm wonder what the emergency was? It can’t be the weather since I looked that up and where it is sitting the weather was sunny today.

Little bits of spring…

I saw these flowers yesterday on my walk, everything else still looks a little dreary except for these early signs of spring. The weather decided to be a little silly today and get cold (it is supposed to be cold the whole weekend), but next week it is supposed to warm up again. I think spring is really on its way and hopefully after this weekend we won’t have any more cold spells.

This little camper makes me happy everytime I walk past this house. I felt a little silly taking a picture (and was a little worried someone was going to come out and yell at me for taking pics), but am so glad I was able to get a picture of it. I just think it is adorable:)

Spring colors….

Last night, Ben & I went on a date to see an orchestra play. It was a lot of fun to go see, even if the first piece wasn’t really the style we enjoy. It was actually a little too modern for both our tastes, we both enjoy classical music that is from an earlier time period. Whenever I go to something like this, I always miss my piano a little bit. We gave it away since I didn’t have any spare time at all to play it (the funny thing is that now I have lots of spare time:), still it is nice to have the space that it took up and I can always listen to classical music (after all, I am sure someday I will have another piano, plus it went to a kid who could use it).

I have actually got in a bunch of sewing and knitting lately, which I have to say is pretty exciting. Today I worked on a purse, mostly just cutting out the pattern and fabric. It is actually the first purse I have used a pattern for and I had to call my mum for help in understanding the pattern. Thanks by the way! (Without her, I probably would have sat there not sure how to cut it out.) As soon as I have it done, I will take a picture of course. The other thing I have been working on is knitting my “this is taking forever” blanket. I am almost done with one stripe, which means I will finally get to work with a different color yarn pretty soon! Pathetic that it has taken me this long though:)
