Summer Bugs and New Product

I've retreated to the comfortable surrounds of my livingroom this weekend, as I've picked up a rotten summer cold. Not quite the way I wanted to spend my free time. Ah, well the slow down time isn't necessarily bad, though I could do without the sore nose, the fever but you know, my little camp I've set up in the livingroom is rather snug, I won't share as it's a little messy...

What I had planned on doing was starting my medieval illuminated text stumpwork idea, i.e. the Dragon. I've played a bit with what fabrics I want to use this afternoon but I can't focus too long on any one thing as my eyes are getting sore (hayfever too, yay!) but fingers crossed I really will get on with that next weekend. 

I did manage one thing yesterday which I was pleased with which was taking photographs of my new note cards. I mentioned a while ago that I was planning on starting to release some of my embroidery designs as cards and I finally got round to ordering a small selection and these were listed yesterday.

With six packs I've got on sale, each will receive an additional postcard of my selection from my prototypes. If you would like to grab a set head to my Etsy store, £3.50 (plus P&P). I hope next week that the new pocket mirror designs will be arriving next week for me to list.

Now it's time to go and rest up again on the sofa and watch a silly film and perhaps work a bit more of the cross stitch.
