Treats.

Thought I would share some lovely treats with you!

Mini soap from Covent Garden, wood blocks from the V&A and the weirdest notebook ever. Oh and a cup that Ma and Pa bought me as a holiday souvenir from their trip to the Lakes. Gawjus.

I love London.

Ahhh I really do love London! Had a look round the V&A museum...possibly my favourite museum ever and saw Vivienne Westwood in the toilets (would've got a photo but not really the place where you can whip your camera out) Then had a spot of lunch in Hyde Park and a mooch around Covent Garden. A very lovely day..back to work tomorrow! Boo, hiss.

Tomato plants are coming alomg well too. Will be self sufficient in tomato-based chutneys, sauces, salads and jams by August.

Oh and look at this:

Pretty lovely, eh?

New typewriter

Hello lovely new typewriter.

Isn't it lovely? And only 3 quid from a Salvation Army. Baaargian.

Need to make stuff. Have been massively busy with work lately, crafts have been abandoned. I haven't even baked any cakes!

Here's a nice website though:

I would buy everything if I could!

Krakow

I have just returned from a lovely few days in Krakow, it has to be one of my favourite cities I have visited-gorgeous!

Beside the seaside.

Just got back from a few days in Whitby. It was lovely, we did lots of walking and the view from the cottage was brilliant, you couldn't ask for better views! Also enjoyed some proper fish and chips, a fat rascal and a trip to Scarborough.

I have also been making more badges, experimenting with Japanese flower printing techniques and attempting to make a stuffed dog.

All in a days work!

As promised....

Photos as promised!

Some of recent work, my 'studio',a cake and the cat for good measure!Hopefully some screen print photos to follow soon!

I really can't get the hang of how to move things around and where to put your writing! Hopefully this will come with practise!

Tempus Fugit

Crikey! It's been a long time! I shall try and post more often....
Well, here we are over half the way through April 2010! Can you believe it? I can't. And what a lot has happened since my last post! Well, I have graduated for starters. What an emotional day that was. Also welcomed a new addition to the family, my couisn Penny's gorgeous son Isaac- possibly the most smiley-est baby in the world!
Since then I've been working full-time in a shop and trying (and often failing) to make things. Bought myself a badge-maker (photos to follow) and have had the odd commision for greetings card. Also been making some books out of dress-making patterns, and making recipe books inspired by my love of cooking. I really have been baking lots, and eating lots....and on the non-crafty side of things been learning to drive! Road users beware.
I promise I shall post again soon with photos and more exciting news.
