nice scarf Meri - you gonna have a go?

did you get Miaou's email? think it's a virus - she said stay away till she's fixed it.

goodluck with the daily blogging - i'm struggling with a post a week at the mo

meridian · 03/11/2008 13:49

vintage.. I don't have a sewing machine so I think thee is no way I would be able to get anything even remotely straight.. I just thought it was a cute little idea...I have some nifty teal wool from Paris to knit into a scarf.. or one of those ones that jsut goes round your neck.. which I can't think what to call it for the life of me.

oh and I have blogged only a few bits thats have been floating around on flickr for a while.

meri - has the MIL got a sewing machine?

WhizzzBangWhizzzOOOooAhhhh · 03/11/2008 18:23

Way Hay ! I'm beading . A MNetter (don't know her MN name) has asked me to make 3 lariats!! I feel so rusty - however have made 2 but now have course work to catch up with so number 3 will have to be later in the week.
To get me back in the mood too, I've bought some lovely 'sweetie' beads which I hope to make a bracelet or two with when time permits.

Well Dior I would love to bead all the time but alas my course work gets in the way at the mo. There's just too much to do & too many dealines to hit.
Now that I've sneaked a few beads out though, I might just manage a few more bits & bobs

I haven't been on here for ages....busy at home with fighting the school/LEA again and some Design Team and .....shhhh....magazine work...has been keeping me busy too.

I have been trying to blog nearly every day, mostly crafting, sometimes just waffle though. I have just recieved a few new stamps in the post today so I hope to play this afternoon!

jeangenie · 05/11/2008 13:31

hello everyone

haven't been around here for a while, tho' have been blogging a bit and doing a few bits and pieces

hope all are well

I missed all the MN meltdown - was it fun?

off to check blogs - apologies for being so random in my commenting of late, life in the real dimension seems to have taken over somewhat !

Fubsy · 05/11/2008 22:07

Hi - Im lurking again too! I spend most of my online time on ravelry now. I mainly knit but Im going to spinning classes too, and i have a wheel.

I heard rumours of the nastiness on MN, and have almost been stung since coming back - there seems to be a tendency to short fuses - or maybe thats just me - on certain threads?

Anyway, glad to see all is calm here!

I will try to catch up with some blogs to see what you have all been up to.

meridian · 06/11/2008 14:31

I have stayed away from MN for awhile due to all the madness.. but have been on crafteroo alot...

I got some paitning doen today.. only one finished and blogged so far though.. its here

right best go tidy up before I collect DS from his after school french club.

Tillyboo · 06/11/2008 22:41

Just back from Disney ...

What's all the hoo ha about on MN? Has there been some nastiness ? What threads, any links ?

Blimey, some people can be orrible. I got attacked once on a thread after making the most innocent observation, there seems to be a couple of resident 'orribles' on here that pop up to attack on various posts every now and again.

Hope all is OK with everyone on here. I don't get the laptop til the evenings as dh needs it for work, Grrrrrrrrr ...
So, my visits are a tad random at the mo until his new one arrives

meridian · 07/11/2008 09:26

my computer has gone kaput... I'm on DH's at the moment.. so don't tell... so i don't know when I will be online again... I have so much i planned to get done today and now its not going to happen as everything is on my laptop and its all gone to s*. it crashes when you try to log on and restarts then shuts down again.. I'm quite upset about it...

I'm going to go for a walk into town before I start painting doors.. am in a foul mood now ...

vInTaGeVioLeNcE · 07/11/2008 10:20

time for a service for the lappy i guess Meri?

vInTaGeVioLeNcE · 10/11/2008 00:27
