These boots are(n’t) made for walking…

Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to all of you lovely readers! This one has kind of crept up a little on me, perhaps due to a certain little chap keeping me extra busy! Â I have managed to squeeze in making a few homemade gifts, a couple of little makeup bags and eye-masks that I love making and a […]

Jack-O-Lantern and the Pumpkin Patch
So, late October obviously means one thing… an obligatory trip to the pumpkin patch!

Featherdown Sweater | Kim Hargreaves Asma
Despite having an almost continual chain of knitting projects on the go very few ever make it onto this blog for some reason.

Just like the desire for pretty vintage style clothes feeds my sewing drive, the desire to eat cakes feeds my inclination […]

Bunnies!
Those of you who follow me on facebook may remember my horrified response to PETA‘s discovery of the barbaric production of Angora in China. I am not normally one to spread bad news or to comment on what is in the press in general but I felt so passionately about this as someone who adores all animals, […]
