Update and work in progress..


So its September & there is definitely an autumn feel in the air!

 Still no news on the house which is hugely frustrating!! 
We are now up for sale with Andrew Grant at a reduced price:

I am trying to remain positive but this limbo feeling is not easy to live with!! Maple Barn plans are steamrolling ahead with services applied for and quotations for kitchens etc - Im filling a huge scrapbook with ideas!!

in the meantime.....

I have been trying to keep as busy and as creative as possible
I am busy making cushions and bags and im even making my very first patchwork quilt!!
Ive posted a few pics here






 These 2 bags are the same pattern; the first is a lovely Ikea graphic print & the second is fabric I have dyed and printed myself..



 Linen Cushions are printed using a thermofax screen, then hand embroidered.. 

 This was a piece of silk I had marbled at a previous class & never used! I turned it into a cushion and added some Free Machine Embroidery to it...
