Im in LOVE

So, Im not sure if I mentioned how much I hate going to a certain fabric store...*coughs* spotlight Kaiwharawhara. The service is soooo emormously CRAPPY and well...its a 30min drive one way its just not worth the angst and hatred it builds in me...because that is really not conducive to good crafty vibes. ANYWAY I hate it there and I am NEVER going back.

On Friday I decided to venture out to Porirua (which is nearly 40mins away) and inspect the Spotlight out there and also go to the local Emporium...which I have never been to.

If I knew how to add one in I would HEART...I AM SOOO IN LOVE WITH THE EMPORIUM! ohhh sighhhhh. Just thinking about it makes me get all mushy! haha. All the sparkly things, the giant buttons the ribbon, the dress up stuff...even the plastic swords had me going!! The boys really enjoyed it too...except that Little Who kept trying to climb out of the cute mini shopping trolley...hmm next time I will take my backpack to chuck him in!

Unfortunatly they didn't have any knit fabric...well none I wanted for this particular project...but they did have this:

Not really sure what I will do with it...But I HAD to have it!!

After dragging myself out of the Emporium of Awesomeness (and convincing Neo that we would come back and look at the various torches and bouncy balls another day) we ventured (with trepidation) to the other Spotlight store........ duhduhduhduh (Hmm JAWS music)... I was pleasantly surprised! The sales girl greeted me and led me STRAIGHT to gorgeous knit fabric and various other things I needed. The cutting lady was happy to be there, so inturn, so was I! YAY! Thankyou Spotlight Porirua for being a pleasant shopping experience..we will be back!

The creations:

 Good old Neo...modelling "girly" shorts...BOOTIful!
 And yes...Little Who had to model the matching Flower!

 This one is finally done!
Love, Flowers and Hearts to all. xx
