Friday Freedom...Finally!

hi!
...finally.
it feels like i have been submerged for a week.

last saturday i began to collate some survey figures
and late yesterday afternoon after spending days typing
and 75 pages having been printed...
i've emerged.

i delivered the goods this morning
and walked out relieved!

it's my brother's birthday next week...
but he's coming up from brisbane
tomorrow to spend the day with us.

he loves caravanning,
and says caravan parks are the best places to socialise ever,
 so...
i found this great fabric online
and it came last week...


check out the little orange kombie's...




those retro silver caravans....




and tiny green canvas tents...
so cool!

no prizes for guessing what this sister is making!

thought a cushion would look great in his van...
or on his bed.

i made a couple of local phone calls today
regarding distributing our cushions
and have met some lovely people
and there are some ideas in the pipeline!

have a great weekend...

camping anyone?

or caravanning?

...maybe some sewing!
