All Gail's Fault

Well not really just that great minds must think alike we have both in the last week done designs with bicycles, Gail a traditional bike with flowers and me a penny farthing with flowers. Must be the onset of Spring makes me think of cool Parisienne streets, bicycles and flowers. Struggled whether to make into a bag or pillow but decided on the former, love the pink and white spots with the muted marbled green, will fit a 12" x 12" pad, ideal for a  gazebo in the garden in the long sultry summer days.


Carrying on from my theme of the Fleur de Lis earrings now lace Angels of Light perfect as a gift to let someone know you are thinking of them during a tough time in their lives, because angels have so many different meanings for each person or the Teacher Angel as a special end of term gift for the help given throughout the school year. A special Angel for New Borns. These are Sonia Showalter designs.




I am also very honoured to have an interview published with Wendy from 1st Unique Gifts on her new project Handmade Harbour. Thank you so much Wendy for this opportunity and so looking forward to all the read all about others.

  3. The cushion is beautiful, the colours and image are most definitely perfect for spring. The angels are also a lovely idea and a gift that would mean so much! Well done on your interview, you have some great tips and I'm very jealous that you have 3 different craft spaces!

  4. How lovely is that penny farthing? Will you be doing a more masculine version too? I can just see this on men's gifts and would've been a great gift for my dad, a very keen cyclist! x
