I bet I have ….. it really is a pain!!! I’ve just finished one of the yukkiest jobs there is. Cleaning the oven. Don’t bother scrolling down cos I didn’t take a piccy …. oh no, I wouldn’t do that to you LOL {{{blechhh}}}. My friend told me that you can actually pay a guy to come out and do it for you ~ that’s all he does, he cleans ovens!!! I have to wonder who on earth would want to do that all day everyday?? Maybe I should start saving now so that he can come and do mine next time ;o)!!! I must admit though, my oven does look lovely now that it’s all sparkly clean. Maybe I’ll just stop cooking he he he, then it won’t get dirty again.
Now that I’ve done that most unpleasant job I can show you what I found in the newsagent the other day …. 
teeny tiny piccy in the bottom left hand corner (no … NOT the barcode ~ NEXT to the barcode)??? Well it looks like my “Daisy Knot” bag!!!! Hang on, I know it’s hard to see. How’s this……..
Have you been to the Among the Gumtrees blog yet for your free “Where’s the Remote???” pattern??
I'd love to hear what you think of it :o). And also don’t forget to pop over to see Vicki as she has a free BOM too - “Flirting with Flowers”, you can find block two, ‘Dancing Daisies’, here.
I’m off to do some stitching now … I think I’ve earned it ;o).

Ew oven cleaning - blech! Congrats on getting published AGAIN, how cool is that! And yes, I got the pattern, it's wonderful Joy, I hope to make it soon!
I saw that mag in the newsagents today. If only I could get to my back issues of Aust Threads I might just find it. They are all still in storage from my move 18 months ago.
PS I hate housework too - oven cleaning is the pits.
Yep me too!!
Housework is a waste of time...lol
It'd be nice if it stayed the way it is when it's clean!!
This is so funny.
Your Daisy knot bag... lovely be the way!

Ok, I'm done...snicker :p
...and Oh!!
Are you sposed to clean ovens?? ;)
Lovely bag. You've almost inspired me to clean my oven too!
Hi Joy,
I'm in England but just have to get my sewing mitts on your bag pattern. It is absoultly gorgeous and I love the colours. I'm new to blogging and love making things that I can use. Also this is very weird. My middle name is Joy, my parents emigrated from Queenssland to England in 1947, my son's name is Ross, I hate housework and especially hate cleaning the cooker. Hence I tend to use the microwave a great deal. Also means I get more time in the craft pod.
Please tell me how to get your pattern as I'm itching to get stitching.
i can't even remember the last time i cleaned mine!!! I think you deserve a medal! Love your bag, great photo and how lovely to be published!
xx
Sometimes I wonder if I started quilting to avoid housework! Cute stuff here Joy.
I Joy, I made a remote holder and posted about it on my blog. I love it. THank you for the pattern.
I love that bag... well done... it is very cute...
