things to make and doodle: Met This Girl on Monday
http://thingstomakeanddoodle.blogspot.com/2011/10/met-this-girl-on-monday.html
Adventures in making, doing and doodling! Sunday, 30 October 2011. Met This Girl on Monday. Question: why is thinking up lyrics for songs related to weeks so much fun? Answer: because I am sad! I saw them in M&S and shouted out, 'FLUMPS! Home made Chai latte. Two Dragonfly Chai teabags in half a cup of boiled water, topped up with warm milk. YUM. New hair. Hurrah! My new favourite lipgloss. I've been making more felt brooches. A deer. And a rose. Cute! I hope you've all had a fab week! Week as I am.

Adventures in making, doing and doodling! Sunday, 20 November 2011. Craving sunny fruit on bleak days! I can't get enough of my acrylics paints right now, I think these colours are gorgeous. My first festive Starbucks of the year. These are going to become pompoms. I got Sharpies for my birthday! New sewing box. Love. Starting to make some fun things for Christmas. And speaking of, this is going on my tree! Lots of presents and fun family time. I hope you've all had a good one. 9829; Miss Tea. I have bee...

things to make and doodle: Starting at the very beginning: project desk
http://thingstomakeanddoodle.blogspot.com/2011/06/starting-at-very-beginning-project-desk.html
Adventures in making, doing and doodling! Saturday, 25 June 2011. Starting at the very beginning: project desk. Before you can start to be creative, you need a space to do it in, right? I have a desk which has just served as a clutter magnet for the last four years since I last used it as a student. The poor thing has been so neglected, it practically cried tears of joy when it found out I intended to clear it out, give it a bit of TLC, fill it with lovely things, and then actually use it! The top drawer...

Adventures in making, doing and doodling! Thursday, 30 June 2011. Why is it that there is never a bookmark when I need one? I had two books on the go recently (a bit naughty since I'd vowed to stop trying to read more than one thing at a time - I get confused and easily distracted! I drew around the only bookmark I have that I seem to be able to keep track of - it's the one that came with my Moleskine Passions Book Journal. I like the shape of it. I filled in four of the blanks while watching min...Well,...

Adventures in making, doing and doodling! Friday, 29 July 2011. Better late than never! Well, a few weeks ago now the very lovely Jane from Teawagon Tales. Passed on a bloggy award to me. Her post about it is here. I am only just getting round to posting about it - I am very disorganised! Now, I think that the rules are that I'm supposed to write seven facts about myself. Well, I thought I would do it in picture format, and also, I only have six! What can I say, I'm a rule-breaker, baby! I couldn't persu...

things to make and doodle: August 2011
http://thingstomakeanddoodle.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Adventures in making, doing and doodling! Monday, 8 August 2011. I started making this blanket a few weeks ago now. It's very simple, but very large! I have never made a quilt before, and certainly never made anything this big. This is one sixth of the whole blanket, so I've got quite a way to go. Will I finish it before Winter? Hmmm not too sure about that! The pattern is from Happy Yellow Hearts, and you can find it here. I am using Boyes own brand DK yarn. Cheap and cheerful! Thursday, 4 August 2011.
