It's Really Happening!

So the Uni luggage was collected today! 

Yes, that is a sewing machine bag on the right! Priorities!
Yes, this is really happening!  My firstborn is leaving home on Saturday!  Eeeeek!

At least there's still plenty of work to do to keep me (relatively) sane!

I was working on one of these today ...


.. and a few new projects in the pipeline which I can't talk about yet!

Hope you are having a great week!

  1. It is tough for the first few weeks, but not for them, they're having a ball lol!!! My boy just went back for second year on Friday and I miss him all over again, I'd got used to him being there doh! Still got the others to drive me nuts haha! Hang in there she'll have a great time :)

  3. It will be fine, she will love it and you will be busy and looking forward to the first holiday when she is home. I'm glad she is taking along a sewing machine!

  7. I had a trunk just like that when i went to University, mine was silver and I still have it filled with crafting magazines and cross stitch patterns. You will certainly be ready for Christmas in your house if you start this early. x

  8. I took my trusty Bernina off to university 25 years ago, it seems hard to believe that it is now the time for our 'babies' to head off! Lots of love and hugs to you all, Josie xx

  13. How exciting but absolutely terrifying all at the same time, but she will be absolutely fine! If any additional support is required there are loads of us within a short drive, and we would be happy to add support/help (assuming she is going where I think she is!) if needed, just ask!!!!

  14. Wow that's come around fast! Hope all goes well for you both, my little boy has started school this week, I can't begin to imagine him leaving home for university!

  15. I'm sure you'll both be fine! Although given the thinness of walls in halls, I might not want the room next to hers if she's machining int he middle of the night ;o)
