I have lots more exciting events coming up this autumn and new designs arriving at my etsy shop this week, all in time for the run up to Christmas.

Vintage cushions

I was thrilled this morning to see this photo from Kristin at KLTWorks of her gorgeous home and two of my vintage covers looking so stunning next to her own designs. Check out her blog for a further sneak peek of her home, which is a colour filled space with great mix of new and vintage style.

Inspiration

I have acquired new followers to my blog over the last few days, hello, thankyou for visiting. I do try to get to visit everyones blog and comment, so I do regular blog reading sessions which are always inspiring and exciting.
I have added a couple of new covers to my shop recently and there are more to come, but lately I have been occupied in the garden and allotment enjoying this very non-UK weather. I have been sowing seeds and making plans for a redesign on our garden, but also I have been inspired by the lady we stayed with in France whose approach to life clearly led her to a more contented outlook than our frantic style. So I am trying to take time over things and not be trapped by the rush of life around me. The results for her were that at 69 she looked like a very young 50 and her calmness and love of life were an absolute pleasure to share.

Etsy in Pounds!

Blogging has certainly taken a back seat lately while I keep up with orders and fairs in the run up to Xmas. The weather has got soooo cold so I am glad of the new heating we had put in earlier in the year it is toasty warm in my workroom.

You might notice a difference in my etsy shops, in that everything is now in GBPs! Lots of UK customers have found my etsy shop and hopefully those of them that were new to etsy and worried about paying in dollars will feel that bit happier to shop. I like the way it looks to see all the etsy shops adopting their own currency, it really is exciting to be able to shop globally and support individual makers and designers around the globe.
