I injured my neck last Wednesday, so I spent most of the week in bed. Luckily, I had recovered enough to make it to Sunday brunch, which was at The Diner (we had to wait an hour for a table and the service was soooo slow). Lynz wore her 3D glasses necklace which I had made her!

While injured, Tom and I discovered the awesome Neds Noodle bar – check out the cute intro on their site!

The noodles were really tasty and they come in super cute take-out boxes. I used one of the boxes as a template to make a handbag years and years ago!

CO+K has a little mention in in the latest issue of Craft’s Beautiful magazine. We also did our second press release yesterday.

That reminds me, I found a new favorite magazine – Marie Claire Idées. Unfortunately it’s all in French but it’s filled with loads of amazing crafts and tutorials. Also, I went to see Alice In Wonderland in 3D last night. Lots of people were complaining of being disappointed but I really enjoyed it. It was pretty to look at!

This week has had two date nights. On Tuesday we went to see The Lovely Bones at The Coronet, which is an awesome cinema in Notting Hill which does £3.50 movies on a Tuesday. The movie was weird but it did have lots of crafting at the start. On Wednesday we went to see Youth In Revolt, an awesome film with Nick from Nick & Norah and Juno in it, at the Trocadero.

After the movie we went to Ben & Dave’s new house for a pre-housewarming / goodbye party for Mel. As always, the food and cocktails were amazing and I was taught how to make a blackforest cocktail, which tastes like cake in a glass.

I had an amazing fabric shop on Goldhawk Road this week. I found the perfect waterproof fabric for my Burberry mac for £6.50 a meter (quite a saving for a £1000 jacket) and some awesome black check silk for the lining (it’s the same design that I made my dress with). I also got lots of silk for making two other dresses, but they’ll have to wait until I’m finished with my coat.

After one day of sewing, this is how my mac is shaping up. The forecast for the weekend is rain, so I shall fill mine with sewing, movies, brunching with friends, button buying and hiding out indoors.

CO+K is in the latest issue of Sew Magazine and Clare posted a lovely little post about us on her amazing new blog, Pass The Pattern.

I’m back in London now. Tom met us at the airport which was such a nice surprise. I’m going to miss the sunshine.

I forgot to post photos of the hotel before. It was really nice and right next to the pool, which was the best bit. We would sit out on the balcony at night and watch movies on my laptop.

Someone on CO+K has already made a version of my Kitty Hood Scarf. It took me over a year to finish and they did it in just 1 week! It looks fantastic too.

Today we brunched with Lynz, Claire & Emma at Plan 9, had the cheapest round ever at the Warrington and then went for cupcakes at Hummingbird.

On the way home I spotted this shop covered in bows. I want to do the same to the Mews!

I’ve been working super hard this week because I’m not really going to be around for the next two. The bad weather has stopped us from doing too much, though it has encouraged me to finish knitting my scarf, which now has pockets as well as a hood with cat ears. I really can’t wait until the end of the week, when I’ll be relaxing in the sun of Santa Cruz, Taco & La Laguana – frozen margaritas ahoy!

We did a best projects of 2009 list for CO+K. There were so many amazing projects last year, the site is growing so fast.

My Lady Dragon shoes arrived last week and I love them so much but I’ll have to wait until the weather improves before I can wear them out.

This weekend we hung out with Lynz & friends and met up with our old high school friend John, who’s living in London now, and catch up on the past 6 to 7 years. Also, the ladies at Plan 9 wrote us a big checklist of places to visit while we’re in New York, I can’t wait!

There’s an interview with me in the latest issue of Sew Hip magazine. There’s also my how-to for making Louis Vuitton style rabbit ears and the pattern. Check them out on the front cover too!

There’s an interview with me in the latest issue of Sew Hip magazine. It’s also got my how-to and the pattern for making Louis Vuitton style rabbit ears. You can pick a copy up in WH Smith and you’ll know it’s the right issue because it’s got the ears on the cover!

On the subject of crafting, I’ve almost finished my kitty ear hooded scarf, which I started knitting in Paris well over a year ago. I’m just making pockets for it now. It’s sooooo cosy! I’ll post the pattern on CO+K when it’s finished.

In an attempt to eat super healthy in 2010, I signed up to Graze, who deliver healthy snack boxes filled with nuts, fruits and seeds every week. Let me know if you fancy a free box and I’ll give you a code!

Tom got me a couple of late Christmas presents from the Vivienne Westwood sale including an awesome rosette and wrap scoop top, I love them both so much.

The snow has been preventing us from going out as much, so we’ve been raiding the DVD store and having movie nights in with Emma. We did have a trip to Ikea, where we got a new TV bench, magnetic knife rack and rails so that we could hang the bus blind up. This photo reminds me that I need to work on my costume for Mardis Gras – I’m thinking of making a mermaid tail.

If you’ve ever wondered where I come from, here’s an awful video showing Fife at it’s “best” – you can see why I left.
