My Band

If only I was cool enough to be in a band. If only I had one inch of musical talent. I took piano lessons when I was 9. My Mum says I lasted 6 weeks. In my mind it was 6 months. Of pure torture. I didn't want to practice, I just wanted to be a musical genius.

So this will have to do. Played it? Playing? Gosh it's all about the memes for me these days.

EDIT:: My band's name is Indra III. It was Friendship (Pittsburgh), but I didn't dig it, I'm in a band and I can change it at a whim right?

My album title: "Come Back To You".

Playing (badly) at a music hall near you.

Here are the rules.

1 - Go to "wikipedia." Hit “random”or click this. The FIRST random wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to "Random quotations"or click this. The last FOUR or FIVE words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

3 - Go to flickr and click on “explore the last seven days”or click this. THIRD picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

awesome cover photography from greenpin. special thanks to my friend Emma who whizzed up my artwork. what a girl genius.

Happy V-Day Lovers!

Dream A Little Dream

Here's to dreams, however big or small they may be. Keep them alive, whisper them into the wind, tell your sleepy lover, write them on a scrap of paper, shout them out from the rooftops, keep them close to your heart, call a random phone number and tell a stranger. Whatever you do, keep your dreams alive.

The Dog Ate My Homework

The dog did eat my homework. Or really - the weekend ate my crafting time. I didn't get to my puffs. I'm sorry. I did however almost finish my embroidery project, I got some serious stitching time on Saturday night in front of a movie. I can almost tick it off.. But the puffs.. They are left wanting - yet again!

I have to revisit the HELLOMynameisHeather tutorial here. Yes, yes I know they are super easy (hence they are my very first debut sewing project) but somehow between when I started my project (maybe September??) and now, I've forgotten what to do!

I will get stitching. Deduct some marks from me if you must, but life in general has gotten in the way off a good stitching session.

In the meantime enjoy these Suffolk Puffs posted above that I found on Flickr.
