I love linen tweed...



I have managed to source some lovely linen tweed... and it's fantastic for my new, and quite large 'tweed doorstops' (weighing approximately 1.5kg). At the moment I am sampling with a range of colours, and these are the first ones, hot off the production line! I hope you like them... x

Pudding Egg Cosies

Pudding embroidered egg cosies are ready to hit the shelves... made from cotton/linen, with a heavyweight cranberry spot lining, this is the ultimate pre-Christmas gift and excellent to fill up those stockings! x

I have a new online stockist... www.buythesea.co.uk is a lovely website selling nautical themed gifts, and it now features my beach huts tea cosies, tea towels in turquoise and navy blue, and illustrated cards. Have a look at the website in the Coastal Living and Stationary sections!

Beach huts in navy blue...


At last I have managed to get around to producing a navy blue beach huts tea towel - navy and white are all the rage in Devon and Cornwall - always have been and I suspect always will be! So it made sense to produce my original turquoise tea towel in another colourway... classic navy blue and white.
I am also working on Christmas tea towels and cards as we speak... these are coming soon - keep your eyes peeled! x

National Cupcake Week!



Today sees the official beginning of National Cupcake Week! To be honest, I've never heard of this delicious week ever being in existence before now, but I am mighty pleased that it does. The image above is of my own 'cupcakes' card - individually hand-illustrated on a high quality A6 landscape card in ivory.

To buy any cards or other goodies, please visit either my Folksy or MISI stores, or my website!

Home sweet home...


I'm back on home turf, and am ready to spend the next day or so with my computer, sewing machine, and numerous cups of tea; catching up with emails, and getting some long-awaited sewing in... x
