Sewing : I bought this lovely Michael Miller fabric a while ago but just couldn't decide which of the 18 bag patterns I have to make! Eventually I decided on the Buttercup Bag pattern, (another make to sell pattern from Made By Rae) a lovely little bag with front pleats and a shoulder strap which makes it just the right size bag for an evening out somewhere, anyway it was finished earlier today and I'm really pleased with it, it's the second bag I've made with a corsage and I think it goes really well with the fabric which is called Flutter.
It is now listed in my folksy shop - http://folksy.com/shops/sykesssillysite and at an introductory price of just £12.50 which I think is very reasonable for a one off handmade bag.

Bills : we had our winter gas bill the other day, E-on emailed me for a meter reading and the bill for November - February was just £112.01 , a lot lower than we were expecting considering we have had the heating on more because of the cold weather. Other recent bills for three months were £57 for water rates and £107 for electric which I think are pretty good too!
anyway have a good weekend
