I was having trouble thinking of what to make people for Christmas (yes I'm completely insane talking about Christmas when it's still August, but these things will take time to make); but yesterday my sister bought the cutest mini laptop and I knew straight away that I could make her a lappy-pouch as well as finally get to use my 'One Yard Wonders' book (as I have been dying to).
The pattern seems quite simple and choosing fabric shouldn't be too hard since most things will suit her personality, however she did say she wanted a cover of some sort, as long as it's purple (of course she had to pick the fabric colour which isn't in my stash!). Oh well, I guess I could go to the fabric stores :D
Anyway, I do apologise for the extremely dodgy nature of my picture... of a picture, in a book... yeah, sorry :/
Also, I am kind of jealous about my sister's cute new lappy, not that I'd use a laptop anyway (I lent her mine whilst she's living out of home this year), but I just have a thing for technology and fiddling around with it. So I feel like she's snatched a new toy away from me before I've even had a chance to get bored with it. I'm sure she's enjoying it anyway, since she pilfered my external dvd drive when she left and then called this morning for detailed over-the-phone instructions on what to install to make it work *sigh*.
Voting bites. I'm just putting it out there. It seriously bites especially when you wouldn't trust any of the candidates as far as you could throw them; and any number you write in the little boxes and which ever order you write them in still makes you feel like you've made the wrong choice. However, looking at all the lovely patterns at Thimble Blossoms makes me feel happier (and sad because I need to do my tax before I can buy any).
