Spring fresh!
Roald Dahl quote, ordered from my Etsy shop with a specific request to use the ‘Felicite’ Liberty print.
A special gift for a little girl called Felicity.

It’s been a year to the day since my last post. I may have been quiet on here but I’ve still been sewing. 🧵
Thought I should start sharing again.
This quote from ‘A Midsummer Nights Dream’ was commissioned as a gift. I used inspiration from the play for my design, with a sprinkling of ‘Flower Fairies’. It’s made completely with recycled fabric.

Dream vs Reality
The weekend’s here, the sun’s shining. Let’s go on an adventure!
Oh, hang on...what’s that? There’s a football match on tv at lunchtime? How about tomorrow? You’re playing football! Oh well...maybe another time.
That was a short extract from a weekend in the life of a mother of 3 boys 😂

Customer Question: “Please can you make a ‘new baby’ picture with the details written in Welsh?”
Answer: “Absolutely!”
That’s the beauty of what I do... anything’s possible!

I’m really looking forward to my local Big C Charity shop reopening! It has an amazing craft section, so I’ll be having a rummage through the pre-loved fabrics. I use recycled in the majority of my designs. Sometimes it’s the smallest bit of fabric that catches my eye, a colour or a pattern that I know will look great. Why buy new when there’s so many bits of fabric that still have a story to tell?

Hope you’ve all had a lovely Easter weekend...and managed to stay warm ❄️
This piece started as a commission to sew these simple, but meaningful, words and grew from there to become a special gift.
I don’t often use coloured thread but the green just felt right for this one.

I can’t resist bringing this picture out every year...Happy Easter 🐣

It’s the 1st of March following a sunny weekend in Norfolk and my thoughts are on Mother’s Day. I’ve been busy sewing gifts so thought I should mention that my last date to order is Wednesday 3rd.
