Maybe because I have no imagination, or maybe because it is about this time in the challenge that I start to get a bit restless with the whole thing… I randomly decided to wear basically the same outfit and stand in the same spot as yesterday. Well, it is definitely the same spot and it is, er, the same outfit but completely different, of course. OK, I do realise that makes no sense whatsoever. And is kinda lame anyway.
Moving on…
Yay! for the photo mini-challenge tomorrow, although “sewing/knitting/creative space” doesn’t seem to lend itself much to creative interpretation but seems pretty cut and dried. I’m wondering, how is everyone’s photos not going to look more or less identical? I’m gonna put my thinking cap on…
Last night I spent a very enjoyable few hours wining and dining and chatting about Spotlight, bras, phone apps and Brad Pitt; amongst a whole bunch of other stuff, with velosewer, jennleeC and Penny hooper. Great fun 🙂 Um, Brad Pitt? Seriously, I have no idea where that came from….!

Great outfit – love the leggings. Still love your photos – even if they are in the same spot. You really have a great eye.
I really really love Craig's business shirt – I think another one is in order… Does he have a birthday coming up???
Bold aren't I – ordering a shirt on behalf of your husband – LOL
Nothing wrong with same, look at my photo locations, not too many around the back yard and I think tomorrow's challenge will be to see who has the tidiest! Love your leggings, I might have to try some. Now I need to corner Velosewer this weekend and find out all the details, Brad Pitt indeed!
That is the trouble with the usual 'what I wore' series. Unless you dress like Lady Gaga, or do some world travel during the month, it is bound to become a bit mundane after a while. I don't remember those fun leggings before, nor the dress come to think of it. Australian trees fascinate me – all that peeling bark and the strange colours. And, you've got the 'what they wore' thing going on as well. I don't think I'm likely to get bored for a while.
Wunderschönes Outfit!

Ooh, I think I like this outfit even better than yesterdays. Very nice look! And photo is still perfect!
Love the top. and the whole outfit. You keep referring to the Pattern Magic books, for which you produce some beautiful designs, you are tempting me to purchase one.
I am totally in love. This top is more than nice.
I think you are right about the whole restless thing at this time of the month! I'm interested to see what we get out of the creative spaces! I too will have to think a bit more creatively on it tonight.
Wow! It's amazing how different this looks in another colourway. Fabulous 🙂
Lovely, glad you all had a fun time last night 🙂
How wonderful that you were able to get together with the other sewers – no lack of conversation there, I imagine.
Well dressed men in your family. I like the tights!

I love how your entire family is participating! : )
Fantastic leggings!
Love, love, love!
And those leggings are absolutely RAD! These are the kinds of leggings that would have the girls in my derby league going bananas for!
You do super things with Pattern Magic! It's so neat to see your family participating in MMM with you as well. And I love the leggings!
