Sewing bee bug...

Is bee even a bug? Oh no I already in the rumble...  When tv was showing great pottery throw down I was happily attending pottery classes in my local indi coffee shop, last session had to be postponed due to the obvious reasons... and well then summer was mark by amazing season of sewing bee.  Oh I love me some Great British Sewing Bee!  So I thought well I have time... so I dusted off my sewing machine and well started.  Made some sleeping masks. Actually I had to redo them since they turned out too chunky... then I made a pinafore from the old bed sheet. Like a test run. I haven’t been making stuff from the actual pattern in well over 15 years (well not since I was a teenager). I got the bug. I am planning a Christmas themed quilt. I never made a quilt but I found a nice and simple tutorial on YouTube. I also signed up for some fab makers, sewers channels there. And now trying to learn how to sew with stretch fabrics. Plan is to turn some old hubby’s tees into son’...

Fun Sexy Spy Movie

 When you hear that Guy Ritchie makes a new film... You get excited. Well I got excited. Then I saw the trailer.... It was like old style Bond had a facelift and so much fun!  I sort of forgot about the RDJ Sherlock Holmes, so in my mind I only had his fun crime and gangster films.  Speaking of which, are you watching The Bake off?

I have been informed that the original show was a good fun, and has been enjoyed by many. Well being Russian and that it hasn't been daubed, so I have no idea!! However I sure enjoyed the film Great plot! Fun plot... Not necessary believable in some places (I mean it should have been more complicated to get some one out of East Berlin), but that makes a fun spy film.  Go see it. I do not want to give any spoilers... But it was fun, with a traditional Guy Rit...

Statement.... Christmas tree

Image
So I guess you all heard about the statement jewellery.... Statement necklaces, statement earrings and such...  Especially after Oscar! God! Statement necklaces everywhere... Like EVERYWHERE!!!! Didn't dig just love the Scarlett Johansson Versace number  or Kate Blanchett Well this is actually one of very few fashion things I cannot do... Well I am getting there.  However you cannot have these beauties with a small child  Also one must have a very long beautiful neck for these and either time to do your hair or have smart short style.  Oh how I miss my short hair sometimes... But think it might be harder in the long term. Anyway, I love the idea. It's like having ruby lips and no make up at all on the eyes. One accent, very tasteful. Like Particia Field styling of SJP in my ever so favourite Sex and the City: either big in top or bottom. It is the winning formula really.  But with jewellery I have a ...
