Sidetracked!

Today I got sidetracked! Yesterday some fabric I'd ordered for my dyeing arrived and although it purported to be exactly the same as the stuff I'd had before ...it wasn't! I dyed a sample metre and it isn't bad but it isn't the same! So this morning I got involved in sorting out exactly what it was I wanted in a fabric with my suppliers. I'm now keeping my fingers crossed! So the morning just frittered away without me doing anything terribly creative. I seemed to spend a great chunk of it on the phone. So no playing! And when I thought I'd use up a half hour and stitch some applique motifs together I found that the roll of freezer paper I'd used wasn't actually freezer paper. It stuck to the iron and after reassuring myself that I'd not got it the wrong way round I realised that it had wax on both sides and neither side stuck very well...not even to the iron! So all that has to be redone. I then got all wound up with monofilament thread which wouldn't play nice. So all in all to date a good time wasn't had by me! Off to enjoy a bbq! I'm so optimistic!
