This little Piggy went to Market!


I had to go to 2 destinations in order to purchase a twin needle and replenish my skin care. Fairly simple exercise, not too draining on time or expenses.
You'd think!
I know exactly where the needles are situated in this shop and once inside all it was going to take was a right turn & 5mins however I went left!
An hour later I'm sitting in the car thinking, "what was I thinking?!" Not entirely true, the whole time I'm walking around the shop (with a shopping trolley!) plucking this & that I'm thinking "WTF am I doing, I don't need more fabric - do I?",  justifying each metre purchased with "well, summer is coming and you don't have that colour, fibre or print".

I promise to make clothes!

It wasn't over though, I still had to negotiate the Shopping Centre for the one other thing still on my list. 
Again I knew exactly where I had to go & again I sabotaged myself.

There's only one place in Perth that sells my favourite brand of shoe and it just happens to be directly opposite my skin care shop.

I chose to go in. They were on special. I bought 2 pairs.

I promise to make clothes to wear with my shoes!

  2. A perfect solution if I thought I could relax enough to still be creative.
    We've put off the whole driving thing for as long as possible in the hope that she wont be as easily distracted by her own reflection and end-up up a power pole!
    The fact that I now have NO money seems to have cured me!
