Oh pussycats...
yesterday was a crappy day!
I went to buy yarn and groceries and vodka..
( what else does a girl really need?!)
Yep..a regular day...a few errands..nothing special.

I come out of the grocery store...
i look and look..no car.
I walk around...looking for my
lovely maroon rust-bucket.
It is NOT there!!!!
Dammit!!!
I start to question my state of mind..
No afternoon drinks.
No recent diagnosis of Alzheimer's or dementia.
Pinch, pinch..no i am not dreaming.

After much second guessing and dragging my grocery
bags around a VERY large parking lot
the realization sinks in...
My car has been stolen.
In less then half an hour.

Called the police. etc etc.
The people at Loblaws were very
helpful and very nice!
I have to admitt, i am pretty annoyed!


Now i wait...
Will i get it back???
Will it be returned looking like this???...
God, i hope not!!!

Keep you fingers crossed for me pussycats!
Maybe i will get that hello Kitty car after all...
Have a good afternoon!
I will keep you posted, Luv Weezi xo
Vintage Handbag Good Morning Pussycats!
I am lovin' this nice spring days!!!
Yippee! and Yahoo!
Maybe, just maybe i can take the plastic
off my windows this weekend.

I saw this lovley vintage handbag
on line today....
I think it is fantastic....so 50's.
I think i was born too late..this
stuff as such a huge appeal to me.
The design, the stones, the handle....the fact that there are
peacocks on this bag....sigh...no wonder i hate
The Gap and American Eagle so much.
I wish i could make something like this...

I bid you "adiue" for now pussycats!
Enjoy the sun! Luv Weezi x
I CAN Crochet!

Hiddy Ho Pussycats!
Finally a completed crochet project that
i can share with you....
without being embarrassed!
I am very pleased with this little felted bag...
I had to wash it twice to get it
good and tight and soft.
I plan on many more like this!
Doing this one was a lot of fun...
I will do stripes next time i think...

Anyhow...I am in this obsessive flower mode...
i don't know what is up with me but i
want to put flowers on everything!
And always in the bottom right hand corner.
I don't get it but for now
i will go with it.
Happy Sunday!!!
Luv Weezi xo

ps...if anyone knows of a tutorial
on-line that shows how to
crochet little puffy polka dots....
could you PLEASE pass it
along to me.
I would be very appreciative!
I can't find anything and i would like to try something like this..xo
Saturday Morning

Hiddy Ho Pussycats!!!
Well, i have been spending yet another Saturday
morning "purr-oozing" the internet.
Here are some interesting things i found...

Did you know there is a magazine called "Small".
Now, if you have met me you know
why this has significance to me...
b/c i am 7 ft 2" tall ;)
www.smallmagazine.net
It does not have catalogues of awesome shoes for
small feet like mine...size 4 1/2"-ish
Nor does is it have awesome lists
of great come backs to idiots
who think short jokes are "oh so funny"!
It isn't all about kids..but mostly.
It has some nice illustrations and crafts..if you
have kids you might like to check it out.


www.tar-tan.net
I have a real thing for Japanese fashion, arts and crafts
and Japanese magazines.
( i think i was Japanese AND Italian -for that matter
in a former life...but that is for a
different day ;)

I found this site today...i LOVE cats
so this really struck my fancy!


They have all kinds of hand made fabric cats.
I loved all of them!!!
If you like cats...this is cool.


www.rarebirdfinds.typepad.com
I have been to this site a few times and really
enjoy what they post...


This awesome lunch box was posted yesterday.
retro Mod lunch pail $19 at Home Decor Crafts

They have great "nic-nacs", jewelery...stuff.
I like the "great goodies under $10.00"
These were cute as well...personal kninja
Pacman Vinyl Cuff



And, lastly..many of you may know about this site...
www.lochers.com
If you haven't been here.. check it out!

This site has some very pretty and very interesting tees
with subliminal mesages..
Love this!...
This is one of the "tamer" teeshirts.

I like this lovely little necklace....

I think you will enjoy it!
It will appeal to the "saucy" side of your girly persona...
the sugar and spice and " don't $#@! with me" side!

Ok, i have spent way too much time on
the internet already today
and i haven't check out the vintage
patterns on eBay yet.
Must go and sew....

Caio! luv Weezi! xo
April Showers.....
Hiddy Ho Pussycats!
Well..you know what they say ...
April Showers bring May flowers.


Now, i know it is not April yet..
But- it did rain like crazy today which made
me think of umbrellas.
I was trying to convince Milos to take an
umbrella to work with him this
morning. No luck..not very "manly".

Did you know... The word umbrella is from the Latin word umbra, which in turn derives from the Ancient Greek όμβρος (omvros). Its meaning is shade or shadow.

Hmmmm..interesting..tell me more!
Umbrella is another term for the parasol, which was first used as a protection against the scorching heat of the sun, "para" meaning prepare or shield and "sol" meaning sun. The word "umbrella" has evolved from the Latin "umbella" (and "umbel" is a flat-topped rounded flower) or "umbra" meaning shade.
( from www.wikipedia.org)

I used to have one of these clear big bubble
umbrellas when i was a kid..i loved it!
Yep..just like this only with a red band.
(www.umbrellastand.com)

I like this one too...

Of course Fido needs one too!
hee hee! very cute!

And well..i couldn't resist looking
and i found this little gem...
OOOHHH!!-This poor pooch does NOT look
impressed with his rain coat!!

Better days are ahead!
Take care!! LUv Weezi xo
Fluffy
Oh Pussycats..i seriously thought about staying bed
all day when i saw the snow this morning.

I am so tired of winter and snow..
BUT!-i saw this on the web today
and it really did put a smile on face.
If this lovely little pequin represented winter...
then OK...i don't mind winter so much.
Hang in there pussycats!
The first day of spring is officially tomorrow at 8:00pm
YIPPPEEE!!!!!!
Have a good one! luv Weezi xo

I love making spring and summer bags.

HEllo Pussycats!
Spring and summer are my favourite seasons
to sew for and
I love making spring and summer bags.
This is one of my new favourites.
Made from a sweater..i guess this is my
new "thing" cutting up sweaters.

Green and pink is also a new obession of mine.
Enjoy your day! Luv Weezi xo
