Weekend In Wales
Every once in a while there is that rare moment where I can blog about something other than sewing! Impossible!!…..I hear you shout. Not probable maybe but certainly not impossible as this weekend I stepped away from the sewing machine, left the shop and went to the lovely Wales for a couple of nights with my lovely group of friends for some good old fashioned Halloween fun! And, as you...

Shop Sign!
Last night my sign was finally put up and I love it! The shop’s really starting to come together now. The side sign came as well, I’m just waiting for Mark, the nice sign man, to whip me up a bracket and that can go up as well! The sign has been cut from blue acrylic on a fancy sign cutting machine (that’s the technical name for it!) and looks just splendid. Here it is!

SewSew Shop Now Open!
After many a long week of painting and sewing and stressing the SewSew shoppe is now open! It’s still not quite finished, there’s still a partition to go on the front and my signs have not yet gone up but nevertheless it’s all go! Here’s a pic!
Still lots more stock to get in so have been sewing away all day but hopefully it will soon start looking a lot more full!...

After two and a half years of manic stitching in the spare room I can finally move into my own bricks and mortar shop, and not a moment too soon either! With the lack of sun light and no one to talk to but the...

When I got up this morning there was a lovely message waiting for me to tell me that my Rain Cloud was in a treasury! It’s always nice when you are in a treasury so thought I would share!

Tea Bags!
I’ve been pretty quiet for a few weeks but really busy! Hence the lack of posting! I’m in the middle or re-doing my website, and when I say I’m in the middle of it I mean my lovely friends are doing the all the fancy web stuff and I’m re-making all my products and photographing them. I have, however, had time today to make a new little something in time for the Beech Road...

What I Made Today....
One of my favourite products that I make in the SewSew workshop has always been my Clouds! They’ve always been a firm favourite with not only me but the customers too which got me thinking that it was about time I came up with some fun new products to show off their awesomeness! Here is something I’ve been working on today….
I started by making some mini versions of my...

New SewSew Blog!
Welcome to the new SewSew blog! I though it was time for a new look for my random thoughtlets and I’m mighty pleased with the results! For my first post at our new home I thought I would show you the work of a New York based artist I came across on Etsy yesterday! Her name is Kristiana Parn and she creates the backgrounds to her work by applying colour pigments to damp wood blocks and...
