Cup cakes and egg cosies


I am feeling so creative today. The Student has requested cupcakes - oh goody.

Tarquin's patchwork cannot be quilted for 8 weeks. The quilting place have more quilts than days in the year. The kid really will be at university by the time he gets it. Oh well, I'd still rather wait 8 weeks than do it myself.

I had a great idea for a quilt based on tulip fields, all stripey and jolly, but what has emerged is indescribable hideousness of the amateur variety. Back to the drawing board. I am going to design some chicken egg cosies instead. I am a bit confused about sizes.

My laptop is so awful these days; it's like trying to ride a unicycle when you need a car. I have to perform techno gym every time I want to use the internet and now it refuses to turn off and just performs a little spinning circle in the middle of the screen for eternity. Mr Smith says I can't have a new one - "Make do and mend" is his motto, which is a bit rich coming from someone who has never ever mended anything in his whole life.
