Weekend plans


Hello, how's your weekend so far?
I realised I needed to get quite a few things done this weekend and as I had a craft fair yesterday I decided I would book tomorrow off work thinking I'd have two full days to get everything (as if) done.  Oh how things rarely turn out as planned.
I've not been feeling 100% this week, with a lingering cough among other things and then yesterday my annual cold arrived with force.  So after struggling to keep going throughout the day I returned home and soon went to bed.  This morning I didn't feel much better so have spent the day on the sofa updating my website.
So although the to-do list isn't any shorter, at least the website is looking a little smarter with a new look online shop. Lets hope tomorrow I feel well enough to tackle the to-do list.

Mandala


Over a year ago I started a sketchbook for drawing circular patterns.
I have a bit of a sketchbook obsession, always have, that's one of the reasons I taught myself bookbinding. When I was a student I was constantly buying new sketchbooks, each one a different shape, size and colour.
With nearly every sketchbook I start working in I get bored and rarely fill them before starting a new one. So the other day I came across this little square book with lots of mandala style designs in. I'm thinking they could be developed into fab card designs. What do you think?
