work in progress

Exciting news in my life at the moment: we have the all important Town Planning Approval for the extension (I surprisingly feel confident stating that in public, even though we don't have the paperwork yet).

Which brings a shifting of my time priorities. My time for craft is momentarily diminished, as I get sucked into the vortex of house extension deliberations. Chasing up a structural engineer. Chatting with a potential builder. A pile of new craft books is buried under bathroom fixtures catalogues, and Bloglines and Ravelry cruises are supplanted by excursions into flatpack kitchen planning software.

The kitchen tart up appears to be morphing into kitchen replacement, depending on how far we can stretch the budget. I don't think we'll end up going with an Ikea kitchen , but I do love how easy their planning software tool is to use, whipping up a rendered 3D view in next to no time. Which greatly assists client* negotiations**.

*ie, my husband and I.

** sometimes the client has differences of opinion. But we're gradually finding some consensus on things.
