It's cold outside!

Todays print reflects the way I'm feeling..........very cold! I've just come back from holiday where it was lovely and warm. It was such a shock when I got home as it's freezing!!! Anyway my favorite time of year is fast approaching so expect to see some Christmas prints on here over the next few weeks and enjoy this very cold Monday.

I'm On Holiday

Hello There. This is the last post for a week as I'm on my annual leave.

Little Birds

I'm noticing that I seem to be quite obsessed with designing birds at the moment.  I think they would look nice on kitchen textiles. I'm thinking of getting the first print made into a Canvas. It would look lovely on my wall.  I just Love them!  I've spent today contacting people.  It really takes such a long time and I'd much prefer to be designing in that time but when you're starting out you've got to get those contacts and say yes to every job until you've got a name for yourself and hopefully one day people will be hunting me down to work with me. It's definatley tough going freelance but I wouldn't change it now. I never thought I'd ever have the courage to do it but here I am and I am going to make it work so In the meantime if anyone reading this knows anyone that wants a versitile designer to work with them tell them of me :) ................................

Owls

Morning, It's not a very nice day out there today so I thought I try and make you all smile with some fun quirky owl prints I've been working on. The idea for these prints came to me when I was in bed and just about to go to sleep which is quite funny considering the idea was Owls! I find alot of ideas come to me at that time. It's very bizarre! I now keep a notebook beside my bed as sometimes I can't remember them in the morning.

Craft fair news

Well the Craft fair was great fun. The venue was absolutley gorgeous. When you go to these fairs you realise that there are some really talented people out there. We got to meet some lovely fellow crafters and sold some of our stock so all and all it was a great weekend. I can't wait to do another one! Now thats over it's back to business. I had a very interesting phone call the other day so watch this space!
