This time next week...

The stores will be on hiatus!


I am rather looking forward to having a break from stitching things to sell, not that I am by any means the sort to make things on a regular basis; life and work get in the way for that. Still it's going to give me time to de-stress and think about my direction for the following year. I have a plan you see and it's an awesome one. Best of all it involves working with my favourite girlies. It's an idea that I had worked out a few months ago, limited edition, collaboration clocks, this is still the idea but I want to make it my main focus. I am rather looking forward to it, especially as it also means a revamp of packaging, and I am a sucker for good quality packaging. As this progresses I will keep you in the loop.


Yesterday I was at Thames Festival, yes I made myself go up to London at the weekend. I am glad I went I met some wonderful folks, some I know and others who I know online but have never met in person. So I shall now give a shout out to the following: Tiina Burton, Heidi Burton, Anna-Marie Stassen, Laura Harris, Karen Jinks and Mary McDermott





Spot of Tango anyone?


Miss Heidi Burton, doing what we all love to do drinking tea and eating cake.

Winding down


I find myself starting to relax. I assure you it has been a rather long time since I've said that. I am no longer making items for the store and the hair thing idea for my outfit has also been discarded. You know what I am okay with this. Instead I turn my attention to other things like; doodling, more hand stitching on the quilt, and I am thinking about making a couple of other bits for the flat and for Christmas. 


The latter was prompted by the arrival of the Panduro catalogue, which always makes me want to buy load and make more things than I have time for. I have in mind to make a Reindeer head (sounds so wrong when you type it) I'd show you a picture but I am having issues with my memory card so I can't access the pictures. I also want to make some button tinsel, and a flying angel pig for my Christmas Tree. Just a few things. Will keep you in the loop! Hopefully get a new memory card in the post next week.
