A very French Christmas...

This year we enjoyed a very snowy and very French Christmas... with orders all posted and things in the studio just about under control, I decided that a few days either side of the big day itself might be one of the only chances I would get to take a break for a while, so I jumped at the opportunity!

Before starting CMT I spent a couple of winter seasons as a chalet girl, and I've kept in touch with a lot of the people I met during my time in France. So I asked on a whim about the availability over the festive period, and to my delight there was space for us! We packed our suitcases and jetted off to France for mulled wine, cheese... and even turkey on Christmas Day!  

Joyeux Noël xx

La belle France

After a week in the snow I am finally back in the driving seat, or should I say the 'sewing seat'. It has taken me all week to catch up and get around to writing this! Whilst dreaming of mountains this week I have been busy making fresh batches of egg cosies, aprons and other new goodies and freshening up my stockist's supplies.

I've been busy designing new tea towels, a range of floral cosies and new natural linen pinnies for the New Year and am excited that they are all now in my web shop. Spring/Summer 2011 here we come! In the meantime I'll leave you with a few snaps I took of la belle France and lovely wooden chalets... have a wonderful week, x
