Happy birthday bunting

Tina very kindly sent me some photos of the bunting and the parcel sack I recently made for her two gorgeous little twins. Alyssa-Rose and Charlie.
Here's the lovely Happy 1st Birthday bunting up for the twins party. I also made a double sided parcel sack for them. Here the gorgeous pair are diving into it.

Isabella door sign and Hettie the owl off to a new home

Here's my latest completed order. All finished off tonight and ready to be delivered by the postman.

Keeley and Erin pink beachy bunting

Here's my latest bunting I have just finished and got in the post to a lovely customer at the end of last week. It was for his beach hut but now they have received it he's said "It's too nice for the beach hut it will go up in the house".
It was great to do all the pretty pink fabrics and I do like making it a bit more interesting with the light houses and beach huts.

Large Embroidered Lavender Hearts

These pretty little hearts went off in the post on Friday and hopefully haven't got stuck in the snow somewhere. I had the lovely order in for this ladies Nanny. They were for her daughter and niece to give to their Great Nanny which I thought was great!! What do you think??

Wedding Love Birds

A while ago I think I showed you a pair of ivory and gold love birds I made.
They were for my friends little girl who was being bridesmaid to give to the bride as a little good luck gift to hold.
It was lovely to make these as those sort of gifts sadly you don't see around so much anymore. I remember seeing family photos of the bride holding many a concoction of wooden spoons, rolling pins, horse shoes, black cats and lots of pretty things.
So it was a lovely idea to take this tradition and make it a little more contemporary and extra special by being handmade. Hannah kindly has sent me these photos to share with you. The big day of her friend Emma went well and Eliza looked very pretty and grown up.

Lavender mice

I made up these little cuties last night. I want to make more (I like them coming to life from bits and pieces of scrap fabrics)......but better see if they sell or not first.
Thought they'd be great to put in your drawers smelling all nice and lavendery, don't you think??
I shall try them at the fair tomorrow and see how they go down. Any opinions appreciated. Thanks :)

Plain pretty pink bunting

I wanted to get some plain bunting made. I wanted to tweak the shape so its different to what I normally do and what everyone else does too.
Something that was more of a budget product than my luxury personalised bunting. So it has no extras on it and has raw unfinished edges, more shabby-chic.
I've got several colourways to do. I wanted to see what the reactions were on it at the fair this weekend.

What do you think??



Wedding Love Birds




I had this commission for a pair of pretty ivory and gold love birds for a bridesmaid to give to the bride. Something a little different to a horseshoe or a wooden spoon. Do they still do that these days??
Once the wedding has taken place I'm hoping to have some photos to put up for you.
