Dates for your Diary 2017

2017 is shaping up to be another busy year kicking off with Edinburgh Yarn Festival on Friday 10th and Saturday 11th March. 

The festival is held at Edinburgh Corn Exchange and I will have a stand in the main exhibition hall this year which is very exciting. I have started making stock already!

Lots of Sheepy Shawl Pins, Brooches, Pendants and Earrings will be coming with me as well as new mugs, coasters, cushions, notebooks, bags, pouches and more!

Tickets go on sale soon. For more info see the EYF Website here 

New Harris Tweed and Felt Trinket Boxes are on the work table as well. 

This size measures 7 x 7 x 7 cm at £35

Other sizes include 10 x 10 x 6 cm at £40 and 12 x 12 x 7 cm at £45

I'm concentrating on my big events this Spring rather than trying to do lots of little shows in between so my next event after EYF will be Open Studios North Fife at the end of April. It's a week early this year so that it falls on the May bank holiday weekend. Brochures will be available mid to late March.

I will be at my usual venue in Ladybank and hope to have lots of new framed pieces made as well as my usual selection of jewellery and gits.

For daily updates you can find me on Facebook and Instagram

Back To Work.

It's definitely time to get back to work now even though our children are still on holiday. They seem to have had seven weeks this year and aren't back until Wednesday!

My creativity is bursting and my fingers itching to get making again so today is the day.

I spent a bit of time over the weekend tweaking my Etsy shop, adding a few new things and re listing some that had sold out.

This 'Washing Day' Printed Card is now available in the square format. This is a lovely vibrant card with the quality of the print showing up the textures of the fibres and tweeds used in the original picture.

My cards cost £2.50 each but some are available in sets.

This set of six below are all in the square format. The set costs £12, that's a saving of £3!

I also have a limited number of this set of four below at £8.

You can find all my cards in my Etsy shop here 

My 2015 Calendar has also arrived. Many thanks to everyone who pre ordered it. All pre orders have now been posted and should be with those in the UK tomorrow.

The Calendar is A4 in size, opening up to A3 with a different picture for each month and plenty of room to write.

This image below gives you an idea of the pictures featured.

Calendars are available here priced £1o

I have some new Sheep Jewellery available now.

Earrings £18

Small Pendants £12

Brooches £18

I'm a bit short of everything sheepy and will have to work hard to restock as my next event is in less than three weeks!

You can find me at The Morningside Makers Market in Edinburgh on Saturday 6th September.

It is held in the Columcille Centre on Newbattle Road, EH10 4RT.

I did my first fair there back in April and had a really great time.

I will have a good range of Textile Jewellery with me.

New pendants, earrings, bracelets and rings and maybe some brooches in this style as well.

Pendants £24

Rings £18

Earrings £18

Pendants £24

So here's to a productive week and hopefully some new things to share by the end of it.

I hope you enjoyed my two previous posts about our holiday. It's starting to feel like a distant memory already especially as the weather was a bit wet and windy and we actually put our wood burning stove on over the weekend! We need some sunny evenings to go for walks so that we can spin summer out for a bit longer I think.
