My Creative Space

creative space 002I have about 300 WIP at the moment which isn’t my natural state at all, I much prefer to start and finish so I am trying madly to maintain order. Over the school holidays we had a train trip to the city so I ‘happened’ to make our wanderings pass Tesutti. I have wanted to make Poppy a yellow coat all winter but couldn’t find any wool so settled for a linen spring coat (until next winter anyway).  It is from the same Japanese pattern book as the winter coats from earlier in the year and with the strong AUD this other summer pattern book has come to live with us too.

More peeps at Kirst’s, the light to the creative moth types.

I'm with you on the whole WIP bit, I like to start and finish one before I move on. I had to chuckle that you've got 300 though. :) That yellow is gorgeous.

Nice colour and nice pattern! I have way too many WIPs at the moment too and I am trying to whittle them down a bit.

Yellow coat!!!! Egads, that's going to be gorgeous!

I know, isn't the strong dollar making shopping so tempting right now, practically irresistible really. I mean who could blame a girl for shopping a little too much. ;)
