Those quiet moments...

It's been quiet here, there has been a lot of bugs this year, and as people use the schools as sick bays, every goddamn bug spreads like wild fire. One good thing has come out from this, marathons of Bill Nye The Science Guy, he still is bangtidy!
I've had my sewing frenzy on occasionally, although my most recent project went a bit poopy, so trying to figure out how to alter it so the fit is better. Will make a post for sewing projects.
I've tried to spend some nice days in the backyard, sorting out flowers and making it decent.
Being Scotland, the weather tends to get pish at least once a day, so all the sun has to be enjoyed, while it's there.
 In a few weeks we will fly off to our holidays, so that is exciting, although I'll miss the dog terribly again.

 Cruden Bay and the castle remnants

 Nice scenery

 I'd have the view from my window any day

 Early bugs

 A quick trip to Edinburgh, did my voting duty for the Finnish election

 It is a nice city to visit

 And a shop with scandi goods was the best find! ( Nordic Affar)

 But it was nice to come back home to my mutts butt

She is elegant lady who acts her age, just like me.... ;)


Back soon with more stuff.....

Primark hacks and some weirdness....

I've been trying to keep up with the crafting, my eternity crochet prject is still on the go, but I get bored with too much of repetition, so do other stuff at the same time....
I had some bits that I bought from Primark sale rack (god I love the sale racks), but never been using them, so I gave them a little change so this time I might use them....
First was a Guns'n Roses body, which I like, but just don't like the idea of opening press buttons in a sweaty crotch, so I decided to marry it with a skirt I've had in the cupboard for ages, so a bit of chop chop, and result.

The other one was a top I grabbed, and noticed it was a bit small, it fits though, but it's short, so I added a little fabric to make it into a nice summer dress, BAM!

 This one is cheap polyester knit  that I made into a tunic, but never used it, so I took in from the sleeves, maybe with a different fit, I'll actually wear it....

This one is a knit dress I bought from a charity shop for 50p (them sale racks....) but as I'm not very beige, I had to add something to the dress, and the Karelian emroidery was perfect idea for the hem. I got the practice, and the dress got a little colour.

We have been watching Bill Nye the Science Guy, and I get fanny flutter, he is hot!
that's about it for now, it has been relatively good weather wise, so have been taking every chance for going outside, and will post some pics of our trip to Cruden Bay last week....

But for now, ta ta bitches.
