Blogtoberfest 1 and the end of September!

*** edited!
Typical, I completely forgot that I had a September Mosaic to add to Lynnes Fresh Sewing Day!


Not the most interesting of Mosaics I'm afrad, but this small amout of makes is all I came up with for September!  Rotten Mug Rug (third down middle) was by far the best thing I've made.  I really love it, and I wish I still had it! 


As a participant in Tinniegirl's Blogtoberfest my aims for this month are as follows -

  • I'd like to prove to myself that I can post a bit more regularly!
  • I'd like to use the need to post as encouragement to take more photos of whatever I get done each day, NO MATTER HOW LITTLE. 
  • I'd like to occasionally do posts that arent just sleep and sewing.
  • I'd like to finish my first year of blogging in a new and different way to the year of lengthy once a week / 10 days or so posts.
  • I'd like to celebrate the fact that I've gone from thinking that no one could possibly want to read my rambling nonsense, to thinking that I now have 100 people signed up to read what I write - how abso-blooomin-lutely incredible is that?!  

I'd like to start as I mean to go on.  But I've f***ed that up already and its only day one!  Oh well...  I did some sewing today and I have no photos.    So here's what we were up to this evening.  Tell me, have you ever seen such lazy-assed attempts at playing?!

  8. Our cat hates that thing too. I think it's awesome, he could take it or leave it. Now, a good bug is a whole different story.

    You were so productive in September and I'm sure October will be just as good if not better!

  12. I loved your rotten mugrug, too. In fact, I've been day-dreaming about other iconic album covers to do the same with but can't get past the Clash's London Calling - but am not clever enough to think of a punny play with it! Proving I really AM a dumb blonde...
