This week on Thursday Adventures with Niki we found ourselves searching for Happy Quilt. The big fabric store that everyone goes to. Turns out if you go the way that we went last time that we didnt MEAN to go you end up at Emart (another place we were wondering about) and Happy Quilt. Take some exits, theres a hospital, a bridge, and voila!
Happy Quilt.
And here is where I should be posting pictures of the awesomeness that was inside of Happy Quilt…but I didnt even take out my camera. I was in awe. SO MUCH FABRIC omg. So much. It was fantastic!
After picking up and putting back about 20 different fabrics I chose 3 packs to buy. I dont even have a sewing machine here yet and zero projects in mind so fabric shopping was pretty dumb and random. But I love it.
This one reminded me of Michelle 🙂
This one was too stinkin cute.
And ugly green. My fave. A good filler/liner/background fabric.
I was *this close* to buying a whole stack of super cute boyish pre cut squares in 3 or 4 coordinating fabrics tied together with a string. All I had to do was sew it together to have a quilt. It was 30,000 won though ($30ish) and I just couldn’t do it! Next time…next time..
After Happy Quilt we drove circles around Pyeongtaek (again no pictures. Fail.) looking for the entrance to a friend’s apartment building. We could SEE the building but couldn’t figure out how to get to it and when we called she had no clue where we were and how to tell us. Finally we backtracked a bit and made our way in. And then I bought the Bridesmaids dvd from her. That movie is wonderful. She even took won because that’s all the money I had 😛
Finally, a commissary run. It’s a Thursday thing for Niki and I think even after I get my own car I’m going to go with her because shopping is just more fun with a buddy. Especially when said buddy has a baby for Timmy to be entertained by too. Win win.

Now today is Friday. Friday is playgroup day. This is what, week 5 of playgroups?? Ive only been the the first one. Finally today I made it again! Making the same muffins I made last week but this time I was able to share 🙂
Same ol same ol…
Then BAM!
The Nutella comes out.
I could live on these.
Once the muffins were out of the oven we walked over to Niki’s house
‘eew whats THAT?!’
HUGE tire.
It was a good day. Now I’m going to watch Game of Thrones because Thomas made me watch the first episode which means I need to see THEM ALL. Right now. Totally sucked in.
Okay, so I’m gonna send you some money and I want some Marimekkoish fabric m’kay? And I totally think that you like Bridesmaids because it reminds you of me. Yes, I’m gonna take the cake for that. AND I bought the first GoT book and I totally can’t get into it. Too much information and backgrounds of people to learn. My brother said it takes a while to get into then it’s good. I guess kind of like The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo…which has been sitting on my bookshelf for a year.
AWESOME!! Wow! Fun fabrics. Will have to hit that place up tomorrow. I should try harder to resist though since I already have a significant fabric stash, but I’m going under the guise that I ‘need’ fabric for Lucy’s birthday party. Believe me? I do.
I love all your updates, makes me feel as though I am there with you!! What was that “eww” that Layla was pointing at? lol
