such a mess. Thought id better update even though i dont really have the best pics to show.
This is my work space at the moment....

Oh what fun! :)

I really need to organise myself better. Need to do another Ikea trip.

Im working on small flop stencils today to add to my designs at the show, should be fun to play with.

Im thinking olives and garlic flowers to add to the kitchen range.
And a couple of kitch minimal designs for the giftware.
Also making a few oven mits and other crafty kits.

Craft Hatch Market Tomorrow!

Thanks for all the comments!!!! I love it when people write to me. :)

Find me at Craft Hatch Market tomorrow 11am City Library. Little flinders lane.

ok, so yes i have been a little slack keeping weekly posts for the last 2 weeks or so. Been pretty flat out with orders which i am now stopping. i am trying to build up a stock level for the craft market tomorrow but also for The Stitches and Craft Show in Melbourne which is only a few weeks off....

Very nervous, first timer. and stressed!

Just had an awesome easter break to Gold Coast, Qld and spent a few stress relief days at dreamworld and went on all 6 thrill rides! Giant drop was definately an achievement for me. I have never screamed so loud.....

Now back into it.
New stuff coming to the show. Will show off a few pics at a later date. This blog may not be updated weekly over the next couple of weeks as Ill be sewing galore. But will check back when i can.

Friday night and I want to knock off and put my feet up on my couch with my little cat and lovely husband. Will be off to melbourne craft hatch at 8.30am tomorrow if you want to come say hi.

Good night xx
