Let everything else float on by

This week I've been pretty much alone, I've come home for the Summer from university so everyone else in my family is still occupied with work and school, what a snooze fest. But saying that, it has let me get on with fitness DVDs and do some sewing in peace and quiet. I wore a completely perfect outfit the other day for such an occasion of slobbery:

Light and comfy, and when the not so summery night began to draw in I just chucked on a denim shirt and hey presto. The racer back top is from urban outfitters and I'm absolutely in love with the top plus the leggings combo. I can see it becoming one of my summer wardrobe staples.
But anyway, onto a success story. I completed a scatter cushion! A cupcake tapestry with crochet lace... My first cushion! It's rather wonky but I'm sure it'll look absolutely fine once it's been stuffed to the brim! The tapestry was a gift from my boyfriend and the cushion an old one that needed a bit of a makeover. I only had to buy the crochet trim and the stuffing which came to £5.39 all together, pretty cheap for a unique cushion I'd say! I'm so happy with the result.
But now I've finished my first sewing project I just can't stop, and I'm in the middle of doing two cross stitches which I'll be able to photograph once they've been completed. It gives me something to do!
