My favourite so far . . . . . . . .

Honestly, the requests I recieve for the personalised cufflinks have been very entertaining and rather obsqure at times, however, this pair is one of my favourite becuase it has such an adorable story behind the choice of words! At first I thought it may have been a spelling mistake, but they are actually words from the mama musical, and the lady who bought them said that her daughter say's this to her husband and it makes him go all gooey with love! Aaaaah! so cute!



Over the weekend I will be putting together my wedding packages, and the wedding season is upon us and I want to make your life as easy as possible when shopping for gifts for your wedding party. There will be two types of packages, one will be the customised collection with fabric used to create the jewellery, and the other collection will feature my floral pieces, the stude the earrings and the fabric flower booches like the one above.



I will also be listing the jewellery wraps I have been steadily stocking up over the last couple of months, there are full size ones and also some small handbag size jewellery wraps! I have made them in a variety of colours and fabrics, but there are some bautiful Duponi Silk wraps for wedding gifts, as you can never go wrong with jewellery wraps as gifts! I will keep you updated on the Wedding collections and the wraps, in the meen time, enjoy the sunshine!

New books and a relaxing Sunday!

There is nothing better than a good cup of coffee in the morning, and today is no exception! I had a rather late evening last night, and despite feeling like I had been run over by a ruck most of the day, I went out for a nice pear cider on the veranda of Fat cats last night . . . . . . and got in at 5 in the morning! after having only a few drinks I went to meet jon out our friends house, and didin't  leave untill gone 4! so I feel surprisingly very awake and perkey today, and the coffee helped to wake me up!



My knitting is comming along well and I am at it every spare minitue! I was even doing it on the way to work on Friday!! Gemma (one of my lovely students) told me about this amazing book for knitting soft toys, and I must say, I can't wait to give some of them a go!



The twins and Peggy long legs are my fav! and I just love the way the have been photographed!



So if you like the look of the crazy little fellas, the book you need to get is this one . . . . .



It really will inspire even the non knitting folk out there, and the good thing is, many of these could be made from using knitted jumpers etc! Its just so exciting to read and to imagin how your character will turn out!
I am going to spend the rest of the day relaxing, knitting, and I may even take a trip up the attic to see what little treasures I may find . . . . thats the kind of atttic I have !

I have been taken over . . . . . . . . . .

. . . . . . by knitting!! Seriously! everyone who knows me knows that when I like something I become slightly OCD about it! I decided to knit one day two weeks ago and i havent stopped since! Circular knitting needles are my favourite, mostly because the tiny needles fit perfectly into my hands!



I started this about 4 hours ago, I want to make a neck warmer for camping this summer, and I know it sounds daft becuase we are having glorious weather, and I suspect I have picked up knitting at the wrong time of year! I can't stop the knitting fever!



I picked this wool up today on my lunch break, and it is super duper soft, almost like jersey fabric (which I love), and its a lovely colour, and I can't wait for it to be big enough to wear. If your reading this, and you love knitting, or the idea of knitting, or would like to give me any tips on my journey into the world of knitting, I would love to hear from you,
