Feeling Poorly...

I have not posted for a while as I have had one of those horrible winter flu-things that are going aroundI have spent so many hours in bed now, I am bored, bored, bored!  Even a brief walk into town seems thrillingThought this little embroidery summed it up...

Happy New Year & Feeling Slightly Smug!

I hope you have had a good start to the New Year.
What is it about this time of year that makes one need  to sort/declutter/file/decorate/clean/reorganise/detox!!  Well whatever 'it' is, I have succumbed to it (apart from the detox that is!).  Please note my newly re-potted plants, my plate display (I have had them for years), my 'I can now shut the door' art supply cupboard, my pointless-but-sweet kitchen shelves, my recovered stool (again, had it for years), my wallpapered stair well wall (talked about it for years), my super tidy mini office (window cleaned), my blitzed work room.... am I boring you yet??

Are We Nearly There Yet?

I can almost see the light at the end of the sewing-tunnel.  I have been so busy I have been slack with the posts; must try harder!  Here are some images of Autumnal Collars and Whimsical Folk canvas collages.  I really like to imagine what some of the characters are thinking... 
 
Also, I have had a brilliant response from the Deer Collar feature in Mollie Makes, thanks to everyone that contacted me and who made their own collars.

Deer Collar

I was very excited when my subscription to 'Mollie Makes' magazine squashed through the rather too small letter-box.  I had a 'making' feature' inside of a Deer Collar, and I was thrilled with the results!  Lots of other lovely ideas and features too, and a BIG thanks to the sweet Jane Foster for mentioning me in her blog, (her screen printed Santas are on the page before me!).
