Merry Christmas!

Tis the season to be jolly.

May all your hearts and tummies be full of festive cheer!

I love Pattern

As the holidays come to an end
 

 I am trying to switch my creative side back on

and regain inspiration.
 

While walking our dog this morning
 

I noticed pattern in nature.
 

 



 

I have been very aware of pattern around me this summer.
 

We had a weeks holiday in Morocco.
 

Even the airport is beautifully decorated.
 

 

The ceiling in the hotel restaurant.

 

 

 

 

I love pattern.

 

I love patterned fabric.

 

Now all I need is the inspiration to start making again.

 

 

 



A Great Day Out

What a fantastic day.

A super venue. So bright, so airy, warm and complete with clean facilities.

Those of you used to attending fairs will know

that not every venue can boast the full compliment.

The organisers were fantastic and all we needed was ready and waiting.

Many thanks to those of you who popped in to see us

and especially those of you who purchased from us.

We had a great day.

All that's left now

 is to enjoy the extra long Jubilee weekend.







Off to the Fair

A few months ago I wandered round a craft fair in my local town.

It was lovely and so inspiring.

Why was I not part of this fantastic group?

So after many months of cutting, stiching, colouring and sewing,

I will be.

Tomorrow you can find me at the Apex in Bury St. Edmunds,

with The March Hare Collective

I look forward to seeing you there.

Wish me luck!

What happened to April?

Where did April go to?

It was lost in wet miserable days, peppered with teenage angst!

A distinct lack of crafting and a poor attempt at dieting.

Time to move on.

Believe that life is worth living,

and your BELIEF will help create the fact."

Hello March

Oh I am so glad February is over.

So many sad times.

With the arrival of March

 I feel a fresh start is in order.

I have given myself a motto for the month -

"Make it happen in March"

As it's my also my birthday this month

 and there's Mothers' Day

there should be a few treats as well.

I am also setting myself a couple of challenges each month.

This month I will book a table at a craft fair.

And in an attempt to get back on track with my diet

(a total FAIL in February)

I will give up chocolate for the month!

Wish me luck!

Thursday's Thought

The consciousness of loving and being loved

brings a warmth and richness to life

that nothing else can bring.
