I am gradually “cottagifying” my new place. It really needs a lick of paint but even just moving things around makes all the difference and I have not even got much of my own stuff here yet. My chum, Mel (who moved from Banchory to Looe) came for a visit and we mooched around the Pannier Market, posh shops and charity shops. I found some useful curtains in the Sue Ryder shop.
I had help to strim my overgrown grass and had fun getting a bit carried away with a pressure washer. I ran up some basic gingham curtains for the old dresser and strung them onto curtain wires because I hate glass cupboards.
I seem to have a bit of an RNLI (lifeboats) theme going on in my kitchen. I ordered 4 folding chairs in blue and orange and wondered if the orange ones looked a bit like cement mixers. Now that I have stuck blue and orange flowers onto the fridge, I think it looks OK.
I did actually go to work as well this week and completed 3 customer quilts, including a fab string quilt in African fabrics. I hope to have more quilts coming in this week.
If the dry weather continues next weekend I want to buy some plants for pots, attempt to cut the grass if I get a cheap mower and maybe even get my poor wee car cleaned up.
