A look in my sketchbook





A few pages from my scrapbook, I'm not obvious about my work, but I thought it would be worthwhile   showing my creative side. My brothers are going to Japan this weekend and I am going to a village jubilee party for the bank holiday. My silk has arrived and I've cut out my first pattern, its dark now though a bit and the light on my sewing machine is broken so I'll start with the sewing tomorrow and then get running on Etsy!

Sunny Days




Have been sunbathing and looking for things I want to buy for work, this black bag is amazing, I love how it fades from suede to glossy leather at the base, really unusual and textiles central! 

My silk arrived today so am going to do a practice run of my first real cushion tomorrow, hopefully it will go well! then I can start selling..

Finally the weathers had a turn around so I can look forward to maybe some sun fun.

Darlington and Back



So I have not posted in a while due to the fact the weather's been awful so I haven't been walking that much, or going outside in general so haven't taken many photos, I went up to Darlington the other day to train for this new job Im starting tomorrow which will be really good and these are from Bristol Temple Meads which I had to change at during my 5 hour journey up there. Every day was SO tiring I had no time to explore up north(the only time I've ever been) and in the end I contracted Tonsillitis so had to leave early and am now on antibiotics.

In other news the weathers been better since I was back so hopefully more tan and outdoors soon, I am ordering my fabric this week to start making my cushions and am really looking forward to visiting lots of old friends in the beginning of June......... Summer soon?
