I just finished the top piece for the lap quilt I'm making my maternal grandmother :) It's my first try at quilting after taking a short class, and I'm quite happy with it so far. Also stalled out until my wadding and fleece arrive in the post. There may be pictures when the whole thing is done.
Also got a kink bingo card, despite having failed to post to the comm in the last round, even after actually writing something for my card. Nice job, bluflamingo! I also have an avengers reverse bang prompt, so there goes my summer.
In amongst all that, I've also, in the last couple of months: started a new job that I love; broken up with my girlfriend (trying to be friends, and it's awkward but bearable, I think); started making notes for a short story anthology; come up with an idea for a one day writing workshop I'm a little scared to pitch (do I want my name attached to writing erotic fiction in a city where it feels like everyone knows me?); finally unpacked the last of the boxes in my flat (only been here a year!); bought and assembled new furniture; started researching rabbit keeping... Let's just say it's been a busy couple of months and leave it there, yeah?
Also contemplating a holiday in September. Probably not going very far, since I'm saving in the hopes of going to Canada next spring, but... holiday. Maybe to Guernsey or Jersey, maybe to Northumbria to spot puffins and visit the poison garden.
So, what's everyone else up to?

So far, this summer ... it rates a "meh."
