Planning Me Time

Yay, it's nearly Friday.

I always look forward to Friday as it means no more work till next week, for me, and the weekend is nearly here.

This week I'm sooo excited though, as I have a plan for tomorrow.
My extra work day means I am suffering from a lack of pottering/crafting/me time these days. So this week I have been plotting and preparing to make sure tomorrow I can spend the WHOLE day doing just that ( don't tell Mr BM ! )

I've done an online shop , so I don't have to waste any of my precious craft day in the supermarket.
I've also done extra house work so I won't feel too guilty about indulging myself .

I was actually hoping for rain ! I love being snuggled up indoors when it's pouring outside.
Looks like it is going to be another exceptionally nice day, if the forecast is correct. Never mind, I was out and about yesterday, admiring the gorgeous autumn scenes. The freshly planted crops looked so spring like......



And the villages looked very pretty in the sunshine......




So I won't be sad to be indoors tomorrow.

I've also been preparing by sewing in the ends on my circles........



And buying white yarn, 5 balls is probably excessive but at £1.19 a ball ,from The Range , it's not going to break the bank.....



I can't wait to start joining my circles , to see what they look like with a white border. I'll be joining as I go , great tutorial for this method here.

Yes , I'll be drinking lots of tea, hooking away , and checking out my favourite blogs. As well as looking at all the great inspiration here .

I'll be taking photos to share with you lovelies , so pop back soon to see the results of my hooky day :0)

  7. Have a lovely day and I look forward to seeing that finished blanket - maybe you will be able to sit in the sunshine to crochet.

  8. Have a great weekend's crafting. I find the white round of the squares always take more yarn than you think, so best to overbuy. You can always use leftovers for Xmas crafting!
