me | mu & meow

me | mu & meow are my best friend band. They're playing rics tonight with a girl who calls herself Shiver Like Timber (i have no idea what she sounds like at all). It's me | mu's first major gig, and they're headlining. pretty awesome.

Big things are going to happen to these kids.
Mai and Julian were interviewed on 4zzz the other day.

Julian sent me this picture over msn last night. It's apparently from some Melbourne street press. don't know which one.



At first I thought he was pointing out that they liked Scul Hazzards, but then i kept reading and HOLY SHIT ME | MU.

yup.

Go Listen.

once again playing ric's bar in the brunswick street mall tonight.
and fat louie's which i have no idea where that is on friday night.

25th of november, johanna's birthday party at her apartment in new farm with go go go go! (my band), xpigs!Piggs!x (julian's experimental side project) and some other bands i think

button love

charley came to visit me this evening.



the girl knows i love buttons. she actually gave me the brown squirrel last week, but the rest of them are new. so so adorable.

she also showed me a lovely assortment of buttons that she bought herself.



i bought the red fabric last week when i was out in the valley shopping with charley. i'm not sure what it is as its second hand, i got about 3 metres for 5 dollars. thats just how it came. its 100% synthetic though. i'm thinking of making a dress out of it, i've got a pattern for a school uniform that i think would look really cute. its going to be really hot to wear though.

my cat loves it, i got it out to show a friend on saturday night, and left it on my chair, she's been sleeping on it all week. sadly i don't have any photos of her doing so. but its the cutest thing. (i adore my cat, so this may be biased)

and the black and white fabric is a knit remanent that i picked up earlier in the week (on wednesday i think?) cotton and some kind of stretchyness (elastane or spandex) its just a bit over a metre. don't know what i'll make with it, but i was drawn to the print.

i haven't unpacked anything at all. just been hanging out with my lizzy kitty and giggling at my drunk housemate.

theres always tomorrow morning (band practice in the afternoon).

first post!

whats this? a first post? oh my. warning number one.... i'm not really into using capital letters.

first of all... i'm not really sure what i'm going to do with this. i'm having all these creative urges lately, maybe its the move, maybe its all the new season fabric that i've been seeing at work. maybe its because summer is on its way. whatever it is, i have an urge to create. i have an urge to sew. i've got a diploma in clothing and textiles, boxes and boxes of fabric, a sewing machine and overlocker and more space than i know what to do with.

maybe i'll post pictures of what i've made. maybe i'll post pictures of what i'm making.

the other creative side of me makes music. i play drums and sing in a band called go go go go! i sing in a band called on/onn... and then theres the new side project (go x 4 is my main band, go x4 always comes first) well i don't know whats happening there.. i'm supposed to sing, so far we've only had one practice. where i didn't sing. just played with the keytar with my friend luke.

so thats introductions out of the way.

list of things to do:
unpack everything
tidy room
set up sewing table

can i do it by tomorrow afternoon? maybe. if i don't go out tonight.
