Scrap heaven

So I have been madly tripping around the world here at CRQ I have loved making my first trip around the world and gave it with much joy to a girlfriend. This friend has had a hell of a year and I mean awful right up to the point of 3 hours before the two of us were to go on our first girls weekend away to Sydney I get a message from her hubby that the trip is all off, Felicity has had a Heart attack!!!!! Ah hello this doesn't happen to 45 year old girls! Well apparently it does! Whooa! So a stent and pacemaker later, i gifted my trip around the world to my friend who cried will love and joy on receiving her welcome home present! Isn't the giving part the best, we both cried. She is doing well and learning to trust her heart!

So now I am in the deep depths of further trips and cabins of scrappy logs to use up the scraps of the trips? Following along??? I know right it's a mess and I am loving it! 

On another point, I have been zooming along using some thread, cheap nasty stuff that I grabbed on the run! I have been cursing that damn thread it just doesn't run smoothly thru the machine it grabs, and pulls and I must have re threaded the needle at least 25 times. Anyway the light bulb went on went and i went in search of my rasant thread and its like a new machine and a dream come true.

Another truth to the saying you get what you pay for! 

I hope you are all having a wonderful scrappy July and that your sewing space is not as horrendous as mine!
