My brother and I went shopping on the other side of the bridge today... We do that about every 2 to 3 weeks... It's easier then driving the car an hour to London, and to be honest, there's just more stuff to buy and it's cheaper, regardless of the dollar these days...
Well, a few days ago, I was hanging out with an over-due pregnant friend of mine, drinking several cups of tea, and admiring some artwork on her kitchen wall... It looked quilted, but she told me it was covered foam pieces and the fabric was just tucked around into the creases... I asked where she found something like that, and she said Mary Maxim... And then went to go pee... Multiple cups of tea + overdue = small bladder apparently...
So, today, I wanted to find this Mary Maxim place... I have heard of it in passing, but I've never gone there... Nobody would really give me specific directions... So, I looked it up online... And it's on the way to the freaking mall!!! Literally, we pass right by it!!! Argh!
Which means there's now three craft stores I have to pilgrimage to...
And my brother bought this for me today for my birthday...
I have a great brother, don't you think? And there were so many things to choose from, and he was in awe of the sample pieces that were stitched up and framed... He thought they were paintings... It was fantastic seeing the look on his face...I'm still working on Panda Delight... The panda part is almost done... Then just the greenery in the background...
