Stitchy

One of the highlights of last week was the arrival of a parcel from Alice of Raspberry.



I won a copy of Craft Magazine in her give-away, and when she sent it she included some trim and these rolls of measuring tape packing tape. Aren't they fab!

I am being drawn to sewing motifs at the moment - not least of all, these beautiful ceramics, and these rubber stamps and even my new shoes.

Oh yeah, new shoes - my 'not-buying-it' kick seems to have come to an abrupt end. I'm all, spend-it, have it, you're worth it at the moment - very very dangerous. Shopping anyone?

Where are those shoes from, they are lovely! Oh, I'm glad you like the tape, very cool!

[kirsty]

[Zoe]

Love the ceramics....always dangerous when I start checking on the blog where I can buy them
..groan...
I live and die in my Crocs at the moment, a habit I think I have to get out of 'cos I want to wear them all the time, they are sooo comfortable. I like the sound of your new shoes in green....can you tell me what make they are?

I think your shoes are verrrry nice. I was about to buy myself some crocs - after having ribbed my husband mercilessly last summer - but I think yours are much prettier!

Nothing wrong with a little retail therapy every now and then - and besides, everyone needs shoes ...

Ooooh I know what you mean about the not buying it kick. I have fabulous will power until it runs out and then I seem to buy twice as much to make up for thre previous deprivation. I'm sure it doesn't help ,y bank balance at all.

Really groovy shoes. I might try and find some.

ok. let's go now.

And I almost bought the same shoes. In green!!!

[julie]

oh the shoes, the shoes, the shoes...and the tape is very nice too but the el naturalista shoes are too gorgeous for words (you can tell I'm a bit of a shoe nerd as I know my brands!!).

Love the tapes and the shoes. I've given in to the croc phenomenon but those are more attractive (could I hide them in the wardrobe I wonder?)

I too have suddenly gone shop mad after all of 4 weeks deprivation and smugness. Will I ever learn?

[nuttnbunny]

Very dangerous indeed!

[louise]

[linda]

That tape is so cute! I found some measuring tape twill tape a few months back and was so happy!

I have been out of town for a couple of days and just before I left I felt the need for new shoes and just bought the exact same pair!!!! :)
