Mondayitis

I seem to have broken my daily blogging habit. Two days off in a week, ummah! Wish I'd made it to fifty days in a row, I was so close.

On Saturday Little Jack and I visited the Winter Artisans Market at Northcote Town Hall. Little Jack stubbornly sticks to his position of hating craft markets and Spotlight visits - he pouted almost the whole time. Flickettysplits, I swear he's not usually that sober! Y'all need to get down there on the next two Saturdays and liven the place up a bit. I was very thrifty but did indulge in some handmade Belgian chocolates from Van Nunen Chocolates. *drool*


This week is already bustling with preparations for Sunday's Sonny & Coco Market. I've been trying out some new stall layouts and am very excited. I would have finished a W Class Cushion today (a commission!) but ran out of light brown thread.

Just as well Spotlight's got 20% off EVERYTHING today and tomorrow, with extended trading hours for those of us stuck at home during daylight hours while our partner takes the car to work.

Also on my Spotlight shopping list is fabric for more Myki Pouches (I've perfected the French seam on corduroy) and some for another new project I'm foolishly going to attempt for Sonny & Coco. The best thing about a market being on Sunday is you can spend all Saturday on last minute projects!

After considering the cost of a year's trestle table hire I spent some time Googling what my own table would cost. I was delighted to learn of bifolding tables which fit in a car boot - and Officeworks has them for $69!! That's high on the priority list for next financial year's budget.
