Spotted! :)

It's always nice to see a bit of product - almost a year ago I sold this baby train design to a textile agent in the US.....

....and now it has been found selling online at modeS4u (thanks Lucy!); lovely to see (and rather impressed at how the repeat has been created from my panel design!) You can view and buy here and here where it can be found in two colourways.

Here are some snapshots of the finished product...

Countdown to the craft fair

Hi everyone, just thought I'd let you know about a new venture that I've been busily preparing for -  as well as my usual work and looking after babba I have also been designing layouts and motifs for cushions...this is quite the family affair, as while I've been busily designing, my mother-in-law has been busily sewing, with some help and assistance from sis-in-law too....the collaboration is working well and we have our first official event this Sunday - at Barton Marina - just off the A38 outside Burton-on-Trent. If you're local, then why not come along and see us - the place makes for a great family day out ;)

Pop over to our facebook page to have a proper look at what we've been up to....and if you're a Facebook user, you may even want to 'like' and 'share'....

Wish us luck!!x x x

A bit of cheer on a dull day...

Oooh - it's such a dreary, drab day today...I can't believe how dark it is sat here in my little studio -  August?! - it's more like October!! :( Here are some cheery bugs to help brighten things up....

- these happy little guys were sold for children's bedding over in Oz last year; let me know if any of you spot them! :)

Eye candy for the home.....

Was browsing through the latest edition of Ideal Homes magazine last night and stumbled across this....

- it's by Habitat, and I'm super-excited because I still have vouchers left from my birthday to spend there; ooooh - I do hope it's in stock when I next visit; it'll look perfect on our new dining table!! :D

World Cup 2010

Well.....it's arrived (though I'm sure, like me, not all of you are over the moon about it!) - today is the first day of the World Cup 

With all the preparations being made well in advance over in South Africa, a couple of years ago I was asked to do a number of football designs for the childrens' bedding market....here's a few snippets of what I sold:

Best of luck to England on Saturday, when they'll be playing their first match,  against the USA...

Have a great weekend everyone!

More adult bedding....

And now for something a little more grown up.....

Hi - I'm busy planning lots of new designs at the mo, so I thought I'd put up a few of my adult bedding designs to show that it's not just about the kids! ;-)

 Here are some of my faves....

A textile week....

I've turned my attentions back to my textile work this week...here's a little taster of recent work...
