yum

Part of our weekend was spent assembling this little gingerbread house (we nearly had a disaster as the roof threatened to slide off) and lots of christmassy biscuits to give to Holly's teachers. What fun! And somehow we made loads of biscuits so there are some left for us too. Yum.

new!

Today I have had a much needed day off, which included christmas shopping and a back massage. Luckily the massage was after the shopping! I also managed to take some photos of my newest item while it was daylight, I'm really happy with it and want to keep one myself so tonight I am planning on sewing some more, I can't wait. This little feather keyring/bag charm can be found here.

london

Holly and I had a day out in London yesterday, and we packed in lots of christmas shopping, a time machine bus tour, (which was brilliant) hot chocolate, chair-o-planes on Regent Street and a look at the big christmas tree in Trafalgar Square. What we weren't expecting were the literally hundreds of people dressed as Father Christmas in Trafalgar Square, it was crazy! We got given chocolates and christmas hugs, I don't know why there were so many Santas but it was certainly christmassy!!

presents

This cheeky chap is my first ever attempt at a sock dog, I think he turned out quite cute - I hope the person he is intended for thinks so on Chrismas morning.
And at last I have updated my folksy shop for all of you in the UK, check out some new things here!

christmas is coming

This new little kraft moleskine is now available here, the colours in this one are one of my favourites I think! And as Chrsitmas is getting closer I have started on presents, this stack of felt and fabric is hopefully on its way to becoming a gift. : )

New original artworks, leaves and feathers

I’ve been a busy bee lately, my creative head seems to be resurfacing after being filled to bursting with other things, and here are some of the results. The first of a new set of original fabric artworks, no two will ever be the same. I transfer my designs onto soft white denim and then hand stitch with a mix of embroidery cottons, I love the texture and colour that the stitches bring. Each one is approx. A4 in size, and fit the aperture of my 8x10 frame (shown in the pictures).

These two are available here, more on the way very soon. : )
