My Creative Space

My multi-tasking station today... A bit late for Kirsty's Thursday's meme again.

Instruction-writing and pattern-tweaking on one computer, online (answering emails and ...ummmm reading Bloglines) on the other, mobile phone, memory-card reader for the camera, remote control for the wee girl's dvd player, and a City Bag that I managed to finish in dribs and drabs betwen computer boot-ups, pdf writing and software crashes over the last few days.

Oh - and I also had a three-year old hanging off my neck (when she wasn't being fobbed off on Charlie and Lola) and managed a few small projects with her. We made a small pillow and stuffed a few of Poppy's puppies (an Audrey and Maude pattern started about last September!!). She also built several houses for her toys from cardboard boxes and bits of furniture and fabric.

SO... all in all it was quite creative. Not sure how much was achieved (?) but the main thing is that we survived another STIFLING hot day in the studio.

You're a superb multi tasker Nikki.

Ditto! And I think there's a lesson there for everyone. Good one Nikki.

Wow. Sounds like you're a queen at multi-tasking, Nicolette.

I would love to be able to part with some of our cold air to share with you. Nothing brutally cold, of course, just some cooling breezes to send your way - in return for a few degrees warmer weather here. ;o)
