Escape to Prints Charming

I have just finished my next book for the 2009 Reading challenge!

Escape by Carolyn Jessop - an amazing autobiography of one woman's life inside the cult of Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints and the story of her escape.

Yesterday I had a wonderful day. I visited the store "Prints Charming". Though a small store, it was just fabulous. I was in love and could have bought everything in sight!! I was fairly restrained given my state once I was in there, and bought a kit for a quilt I had seen in AQC magazine. I also bought a rocket panel and some fabric to make a quilt for one of my best friends bubs, he is due in May. In my opinion, Prints Charming is worth a visit, they have a wonderful style in their fabrics and colours...and the store is just lovely!

Stay tuned for pics later today x

A Sombre Old Week...

Words can not even begin to describe what so many of us are feeling after the horrific fires in Victoria this past week. It is incomprehensible that so many have lost their lives battling to save their homes and families. Imagine losing your home and everything in it, being left with only the clothes you wear and perhaps a few special items. Imagine losing your community, your town, your friends and loved ones, I can't even begin to imagine what these people are going through. Please donate here as every cent counts to help these fellow Aussies rebuild their lives. Let us also remember the thousands of native animals who have been injured and who have lost their habitats as well. My thoughts are prayers are with these people and with the fireys who are true heroes.

Dreaming...

I have been doing a lot of flicking through flickr, domain and similar websites dreaming about how I will decorate when we do our renovation one day. I have come across these couple of photos. The first is the most amazing sewing space that I saw on flickr thru a link on EB - all I can say is I WISH!!! The space, the simplicity - it is just a lovely room! The 2nd is a bedroom in a house for sale in our suburb, I am in love with the bed and hope to have something similar in our very own boudoir some day...the funny thing is it turns out I know the owners of the house....must ask him where they got that gorgeous bed!


I am probably being a bit cheeky by psoting these photos on my blog, but that sewing room is so amazing that it had to be shared!
