Dolly and bunny...

A little doll and her mate I designed for Crafts Beautiful - June issue. Maybe you fancy a bit of sewing? If so you get the kit to make this little gal free with the magazine - how good is that?

Time goes by...so slowly...

We went on a mini break to the Peak district last week. No school routine, lazy days visiting National trust properties (we have just joined - feel very grown up), picnics and fun. I couldn't believe how long the days seemed, it was so lovely to NOT be in a constant rush. I tried to have a break from work but couldn't help taking a few inspirational snaps.

Wood block printing...

I went to a fab. wood block printing workshop with Jamie Malden from Colouricious last week. It was a wonderful, messy full day playing around with wooden printing blocks (there are some really gorgeous ones) and fabrics. You can even have your own design made into a wood block if you like which is very tempting. I came home with tons of printed fabrics which I can't wait to get sewing with and embroidering on. It was so nice to have a play and try something new : )
