New shop

In the last couple of weeks we have opened a new shop and workshop space at Lady Heyes Craft Centre in Frodsham, Cheshire. We have workshops on our website and are taking bookings now so sign up! Mince pies included in all the Christmas workshops of course!

Millie the baby is now nearly six months! How time flies! She's a lucky girl and should have many a handmade smocked frocks coming her way :D The clever thing also has her own blog: HERE

Baby Millicent has arrived!

Well - we are 10 days in.....Millicent Rose is a star - taking after her mummy in the being good at eating and sleeping type things. We have ventured out of the house twice and are very proud of ourselves x
Millie is loving the baby sling which means I am hands free!

The builders finished before she arrived but I didn't have the time (or inclination) to unpack and re-arrange my stash before Millie came....so I am looking forward to rediscovering my treasures and finding some new inspiration.

All the time in the world?

Its sunny April, Easter has flown by (although I did unpack the easter decorations they didn't quite make it on to display) and everything is changing...
I have finished work to start my Maternity leave - I am having a baby girl, due in a couple of weeks.
I have all the time in the world.....don't I?
I had a vision of making lovely frocks and accessories for baby E, filling her new little world full of handmade lovelies...but I just can't get started.

The builders will be finished by tomorrow, then I will be able to start unpacking my stashes of fabrics and trimmings, maybe the inspiration will come?
