* feeling the chill factor *

Perfect sewing weather don't you think! While the fire is cranking in the loungeroom, crummy day time tv blaring, facebook signed in all day, fabric being sewn on the old faithful bernina ~ I love weekends! Especially when they consist of all of the above.

Hubby has been super busy the last couple of weeks work and has had one of his painting buddies helping to get through the work since last Monday so while the boys have a well earned fishing break on the weekend, I immerse myself into my fabric and a couple of glasses of wine in the afternoon to keep the creative juices flowing. Below are some orders that I have completed over the past couple of weekends:





Below was the view from sewing room on Saturday ~ gorgeous day!



I've also started branding my packaging with my new logo designed by Emma Troy Graphic Design




I hope you all have a lovely week and keep warm! x

:: Life Is Good! ::

Last night, I sat down and took stock of how much life has changed over the past 24 months. Not that life was bad before but things are definitely looking a lot brighter. I think I'm gaining a greater appreciation for the smaller and simpler things in life. My hubby's work is going really well and he loves working in the garden. He's just finished building himself a greenhouse for his bonsais so they make it through the cooler months. Our vegie patch is going great guns and the garden is looking amazing!

Miss Mollee Designs is still going having it's ups and downs where I lack inspiration and time but there are more and more times where I am able to immerse myself in my sewing nook and jsut create! At the moment I have some bunting being made, I have another order for some rainbow bunting and I am starting to take on more custom orders such as cushions and more iPad cases. I have sooooo much fabric that I need to get through before I buy anymore but I just can't help myself sometimes! Where do you draw the line? : )

So work life has improved a tonne also, I started my new job at Landmark at the end of Oct 2012 and I'm loving it, 6 months down the track and I'm still learning new things everyday. It's a relaxed office where the boys talk about the weather, crops, cattle prices and how much rain (when we eventually get some!) we've all had. I'm really enjoying the 'rural' atmosphere and can see myself buying my first pair of RM's (shocking I know!) within the next 12 months!

So below is a collection of my life in pictures from the last couple of months and what I've been up to.

Health kick!
