My baby boy turns 20 today!!
Happy Birthday SAM!! \o/\o/
Mr E and I are driving down to Charters Towers to have a birthday lunch with him, and to give him presents from Blossom and us...
We went shopping at TYPO yesterday for cards and wrapping paper, and Bloss found this fabulous tissue paper with Ye olde London newsprint!
I won't tell you what we got Sam for his birthday, but he asked for it be purple, so in celebration of my 20 year old son's purple birthday gift I painted my toenails purple...they match my potted flowers too...
Speaking of my flowers, I also spied lots of lovely Tigerella tomatoes ready to pick from my sole tomato pot! Tigerellas apparently yield more than other tomatoes...yummo!!
During the four hour round trip to Sam's and back I am going to be stitching something new...something blue, with a touch of red...
I auditioned the fabrics and thread yesterday for this new design, and couldn't go past some Bonnie & Camille and my favourite Anchor thread!
It's all stored inside a Decor container now, ready for me, and all parts safely together.
How do you store your projects?
I put every project in a separate Decor container, and they stack in my sewing room (or beside my bed!).
I can see the contents easily, and can grab one 'on the go' when we're off for a long drive.
At the moment I have three projects with stitcheries finished, and five on the go. Storing them this way is marvellous for memory jogs on what I should be finishing first!

And you'll find those purse frames HERE. Don't you *love* the pearls...
