Another new year

It seems like only yesterday we were celebrating Christmas and suddenly it is the middle of February! I have, however, so far this year made a positive start towards setting up an online shop. Hoorah! 

I have been working on new designs for samplers for a variety of occasions. Weddings, Christenings and Birthdays will all be catered for. This had been a wonderful experience playing with fabric and getting back to sketching. 

I have thoroughly enjoyed being in the studio a lot more due to a change in job to a part time position. Back in October I made a big decision to leave a full time job I had been in for 7 years, to pursue my passion and to build a business around something I love doing. This goes back to my motto of 'do what you love and love what you do.' I am pleased to say I haven't regretted this decision at all. I went on a lovely long holiday to Australia and came back to a part time job in an art gallery, a very good place to be! 

Hopefully I will have an online shop up and running by Easter, a prospect I am extremely excited about. Here is a sneak preview of what you might see in the shop.




 
















I apologise for the photo quality (they are not the best!) but they hopefully give you an idea of what I've been up to.

Here's to 2015! Onwards and (hopefully!) upwards!
