Okay. 8 hours of sewing later, the outer edge of the veil is finished. The inner decoration is pinned. With a bit of luck the preview photo will be available tomorrow, see, knowing I need to post them spurs me on!Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Everything bar makeup brushes! Every lipstick, eyeshadow and body spray is on that list. I feel so sad! But I mainly did the RRP prices, as most were gifts but on the stuff I got myself I did what I paid for it (I don't know how I remembered, but I did!) It's just good to have a figure, hoping I can work it down to about half before Christmas. That's my little challenge
Well done with the veil Dinah, looking forward to having a peak!0 -
Well done on the veil Dinah! Looking forward to seeing what's been taking up so much time!
I'm just watching Create and Craft TV at the minute and the world's greatest craft toy is on there! I *need* £450 so I can buy one! Check it out! It's a craft cutter for icing! Total genius! What will they think of next?!Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!Goal Weight 140lb Starting Weight: 160lb Current Weight 145lb0 -
