Work Companion

Gosh, I can't believe how long it is since my last blog post! As you can see by the messy desk I've been busily working away trying to earn a crust! I'm honoured to have the company of my big boy cat Jack today. This is very rare, he is a bit wild, he never sits on anyone's knee, and we don't really see him that much. So, today it's been lovely to have him here purring away (even though he is slightly in the way)

Lovely day

It's a lovely day today, and I'm busy with design-work, but I keep having a few minutes outside hanging washing and other exciting stuff. Hopefully this is properly the start of Spring....

Boy's Bedding

I found some of my boy's designs which I did for my lovely agent at Just Kids It's always nice to see how they look on a bed.

Wishing for some warmth....

I think I must be wishing for Spring - this is something I have been working on today, and my last design was a floral too. But, it's forecast for snow, so I will have to wait a bit longer!

Spots & stripes

I decided to enter the current Tigerprint Competition, just for fun as it appealed to me. http://tigerprint.typepad.com/competition/spots-stripes.html I'm really loving all the blues that seem to be  on trend for interiors. I always find it difficult to find nice wrapping paper that would work for men or women.

Sewing Mad!

Father Christmas brought this rather lovely purple sewing machine for my 9 year old daughter Lois, and she LOVES it! She's hardly stopped sewing since she had her first go. All her toys are getting beds and pillows, and I think she will be a proper seamstress quite soon!

Happy New Year!

Just a few days late, but I've finally got round to doing a Happy New Year blog post! All the best for 2013 to my blog friends, hope it's a good one!!!
