sewing again

Yes already! You'd think I'd had enough after Oamaru's flurries. Well no, today from 10am to 5pm I was hard out sewing. (With some professional photography in-between ;) ) I was helping with the flower girl dresses for a friends wedding. Well there was actually five of us all set along the extended table working all five machines. It made quite a sight, blue, and lots of purple satin strewn across it, mingled with threads, ribbons, pins and at least three quick-unpicks. Our goal was to have seven dresses done before the end of the day. It was intense I tell you, Samara managed to finish two dresses, the rest of us completing only one, my excuse? Ahh strange shoulders and confusing fabric -mostly my fault :) Oh well, it was quite a lot of fun, and I got some of the material to make a dress for myself - so I guess I'm not nearly finished with sewing...*

So what are you doing?

I know I know Merry Christmas!

I deliberately didn't do a Xmas post as I am actually sick of them. I mean it's all good and well doing one or reading one but piles of them? Ugh! (you can tell I don't get very wound up about Christmas)

So I am doing another post which maybe more Chinese based.

What are you doing tonight?
What do you do on New Year's Eve? Sleep? Jump into a pool at 1/1/1/1/13 (first second, hour, day, month, year)  play cards 'til midnight?

I know lots of people who are doing that though sadly my family might be resigned to the first. Notice I put family ;-) We will be celebrating it but with having Parents who live for sleep at 10:30 we won't being doing anything to wild.

A random bit of information
There is no english song (carol type) for the New Year.
Except we wish you a merry christmas but that being mostly about Xmas it doesn't count.

Merry 2013!

(just to mix it up :)
