Just to record the moment, they will occasionally photograph worn out shoes and swollen, blistered feet. It tells a story, ya know?
Poetry in a Kodak Easyshare moment.... (see? I even put in a link... I must be a blogger).
Then there's the photo of the bag that tells a lot about the difference in the climate between Melbourne and Sydney. (Yes, the Beach Bag can hold an overcoat, and can be carried around on a hot humid day in another city... a hilly city... in heels).
So anyway.... that's 40-something blog-talk for saying that I had a Day Of Very Important Meetings all over Sydney early this year. Contracts are now signed by all parties, so I guess the worst-kept-secret in blogland is no longer a secret.

That is SOOOO exciting Nikki. Congratulations. Definately worth some creased linen, blistered feet and overstuffed bag! I'm very much looking forward to having a Nicole Mallalieu sewing book on my shelf.
so are you going, romantic comedy...thriller maybe? Or sharing your sewing expertise? Are you allowed to give us details? Well done! Congrats, I am looking forward to it too.
Now that is exciting!
And well worth carrying jumper- laden bags as you hobble around in your crushed outfit. Woohoo!
Congratulations Nikki! Glad to hear that it is finally OFFICIAL! I also look forward to having your book on my shelf!
Thank goodness we can all finally do SHOUT IT OUT hip hip hoorays! Seriously, lady, job excellently done. Or mid-way done. Now get back to work.

How long do we have to wait??
Cheers,

Fabulous - a 30 something could never do all that!
Very exciting Nikki! Looking forward to seeing it in print (as I am sure you are too!)

Righto, Sue and I would officially like to put our name on the pre-order list.
Congratulations, I am very very excited (and impatient - no pressure, hurry!).
Congrats! Wowee very exciting.
I too know about the always thing of what can be blogged. I find a lot of my photos are no longer point and shoot straight on. Like the balloons floating up to the sky at a festival or the busy hands of European ladies rolling dough.
Woohoo, the secret is now completely out! More pattern testing, yippee!
Eeek! How exciting!!!
Congratulations!! Most exciting news - I hope we don't have to wait too long!
Congratulations, Nikki - worth the wait, and the sore feet, and the all-purpose bag and coat.Looking forward to seeing the end result.
Fabulous, Nikki! Congratulations on it going ahead! I can't wait to see it :D
I want to go on the pre-order list to. A pre-order list - now how's that for pressure from us all. Please read it not as pressure but as enthusiastic encouragement. Well done on getting all the contracts signed. That was probably a feat in itself. Best wishes and good thoughts to you for the taskes ahead.
Congratulations! It will be a book worth owning :)
WOW.
That. Is. Ace.
Congrats special sewing lady.

You go girl! ;-)
Congratulations- I'm sure the book will be a success. Don't discard the linen it looks good even when it is crinkled.
Fantastic!! And very well deserved!! Well done Nikki. I will most definitely buy a copy or three (one extra for mum, and one for my sister)!!
congratulations on the book deal. Being a very new and a 40 something blogger your post was hilarious. I now drive to work writing and photographing posts in my head.
Crack open the Bolly! A big congrats to you, I am finding it difficult enough to write three chapters, I can only imagine what it is like to write a whole book. Can't wait to see the finished product and yes .. pre-ordered copies with signature!
Squueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Yay for no more secrets! So excited for you.
Yippeee!!!!
Congratulations :)
I will be putting this at the top of my christmas "Get-Me-Everything-On-This-Or-There-will-Be-Trouble-List"
Congrats Nikki, I thoroughly enjoyed the classes I did with you, so I'm really looking forward to your book! Yippee.
