Happy Easter, my dear readers! If you don't celebrate, have a great April Fools' Day regardless. (What incredible timing this year, as it's also Fred & George Weasley's birthdays (from Harry Potter)! ) What have you done today - did you receive chocolate, spend time with family, prank someone? Anyways, see ya! FillieFanatic

Galactic Reads & Excited Droids
As Sarah loves sci-fi, especially Star Wars, I thought she'd enjoy some Star Wars novels/novelizations. These two are Sarah-size hardcovers, so the pages are smaller than the paperbacks to illustrate there is a difference between them (because technically, all of Sarah's books are hardcover, but shh.). This looks a little like the beginnings of a Star… Continue reading Galactic Reads & Excited Droids
The Expanding Library
This batch of books I'm making is really large, as you've probably gathered by now. There are so many good ones out there, and I may or may not be planning another batch... but anyways. I've read all of Marie Lu's work, and I love her writing, especially her sci-fi stuff. You can see the… Continue reading The Expanding Library
Loving Embroidery
The Mollie Makes embroidery has had a lot of progress... The green really makes all the warm colours pop, doesn't it? I loved embroidering the little olive green stalks, they were so cute. ... that I finished it! It hangs with my other freebie embroideries on the side of my bookshelf, at the bottom of the… Continue reading Loving Embroidery
Book Delivery
Sarah's copy of Wires & Nerve Vol 2 came yesterday, so I can finally post about this book! Eeeeeeeeeee! I received my copy from Book Depository not long after it was released, but I wanted to wait until Sarah had her copy before posting, so both copies could be in the same post. It's quite a… Continue reading Book Delivery
Adventures in Watercolours
I decided to take a slightly different approach to making the autumnal Flourish & Blotts window displays, and I had an idea for a watercoloured autumn forest scene. The background isn't the greatest, but I'm still pretty happy with it. It looks great in the windows! I love the carpet of leaves, as well as… Continue reading Adventures in Watercolours
Book Shopping
So, Sarah went book shopping this morning... ...and came home with these. She'd borrowed Renegades from the library and loved it, so put it on her wishlist. Sarah seems to prefer sci-fi or dystopia novels more than fantasy, so I'm tailoring her bookshelf to suit her interests. I read more fantasy than sci-fi/dystopia, so I've… Continue reading Book Shopping
Blooming Embroidery
My newest Mollie Makes arrived not long ago, and I'd been anticipating this issue because of this beautiful kit that came with it. It's by an Etsy shop called Brynn & Co, who sell embroidery kits and supplies. The kit came with everything in the picture below except the scissors, those I've had for a while.… Continue reading Blooming Embroidery
A Badge & Reading Recommendations
My latest little badge got pushed to the front of the queue of ideas as it's inspired by the Ms Marvel comics, which I've been reading lately. I borrowed the first five Kamala Khan Ms Marvel comics from my local library, and I love them! The design is drawn directly from Kamala's Ms Marvel costume,… Continue reading A Badge & Reading Recommendations
Cyber Sarah
So, Sarah now has a laptop and a smartphone. They both come from a MyFroggyStuff printable, and I put sticky tape over the laptop screen, so it reflects the sun annoyingly, just like a real laptop! You can see how small the phone is here, I went a little cross-eyed making it. The sides were… Continue reading Cyber Sarah
