Breathing time....

I have had a very busy two weeks and I have a month before my next fair. Though this wont be a time to sit and do nothing. As my stock needs to built up for the Festive Season and also stock needs to be made for Snibston. 

My final year at college is also going to be a challenge. Its quite nerve racking to think how much work is left to do. We are also going to be exhibiting at the Fashion, Embroidery & Stitch at the NEC, Birmingham again next March. I have no idea to what ill be making this time, but I know it will be mostly hand stitched! Not my strongest subject! 

Here's a few pictures of my latest makes.....
