A Very Productive Day..Tea Anyone?



I've never been asked to make a tea cosy before, so I was slightly taken back when I was.  A tea cosy!  Visions of my childhood, tea stained frumpy tea cosy swam about my head.  The customer wanted it felt, bright...like my flowers, so I had to say that it would have to be decorative only.  Great they wanted it for display anyway.  So what do you all think?  Frumpy?  Hopefully not.  I've really, really enjoyed making this - I may have to add them to my stock :o)


I also managed to cut out 48 flags (96 triangles!!) and 8 hearts from the Union Jack fabric.  Now I've just got to sew them all up ;o)

Patriotic and Moustaches!

Well hellooo.  How are you all today?  I'm trawling through a very huge list of things to do, that definitely seems to grow the more I do!  I was contacted by a lovely lady on Etsy, who informed me she'd included my owl (hedwig) notebook on her Buy Handmade British blog.  Why not pop over for a look at all the gorgeous things shes picked today.




I've also been busy making salt scrubs, bath melts and new moustaches, as someone wanted them larger than my normal ones.  I forgot to photograph the one she actually bought off me but I shall make some more :o).  I've also got to make someone a decorative tea cosy with my flowers on it and I've got some fab fabric for some jubilee/olympics bunting to keep me out of mischief too :o).  Hope your all busy too (but not with housework or anything boring like that ;o) )
