Just to add

To my oxymoronic life i have a current obsession with a particular fabric. "Fine", you say. Except it's not. There are a multitude of fabrics available to me yet i have to choose one that causes me problems. How can a fabric cause me problems?
Well i've neglected to tell you anything about myself, this will shed some light on my dilemma.
I'm a stay at home mum (SAHM) to my beautiful mashaAllah son (ok, clue there) wife to my husband and a muslim. I guess i should have said: I'm a muslim SAHM and wife.
My dear son has recently taken his first steps, he's wobbling along. It's the nicest feeling watching your child grow and learn new thing.
Anyway so the fabric...... of course it's full of half nekid ladies, winking at you. It's called Miss Butterfly by Alexander Henry (i'll try to post a pic but i'm not that literate yet).
I've not told you what this fabric is for yet. My other current obsession is with babywearing and baby carriers. In particular Mei Tai's, an Asian (oriental) style of baby carrier. I flippin love them and in particular I LOVE colibri's. Which of course are out of production. I've had the fortune to try a few and would one day love to have a custom. Any way, that's what the fabric is for custom Mei Tai's.
Feel free to suggest any fabrics. I'm currently looking at paloma birds on black (out of print), filmore floral (out of print), timeless treasures basix and bare nekid ladies LOL!
Any way signing off for now

On track

Ok rant over!

So a little about me and what i'm up to. I'm a married muslim mother of one. I have a little boy who is 16months old. I'm a stay at home mum (SAHM) and i'm loving it. Although I wish we got out a little more.

What has helped me get out (in the warmer, dryer months) are my baby carriers and my Stokke Xplory.

I highly recommend the Stokke for reference. It turns on a sixpence

Rambling of the day

Today I had a run in with an a$$ of a 'white' van man, he was in a red van actually. He thought it was cool to try an act hard with a woman driver, 70 odd year old woman (my gran) and 16 month old! Sometimes I wish I was a man so i could kick brutes like this right where it hurts.
Anyway he was in his work van with a little sign asking how he was driving, so i told them. Hehehe, I hope he gets the sack.
