This and that - and a giveaway!

It's been such a crazy few weeks! I have not been on social media lately as I've had some pretty darn exciting things happening behind scenes, some professional, and some personal. I can't wait to spill the beans! I promise, I will be sharing the news as soon as I can.

One of the things that's kept me busy the last week or so was doing some technical editing on dear Ayda (@cafenohut) 's new book 'Made for Baby' by Tuva Publishing, that's going to print soon! Guys, this book is soooooo cute and yummy, and I felt so priviliged to have an advance preview! The projects are a great mix of easy and achievable projects in the most part, but also full of great techniques for those of us who want to feel a little 'challenged' and perhaps learn something new. See, I learned something new: how to make tassels. So easy, and so cute!

And here I am, using the highly scientific 'eenie meenie minie moe' method to select a tassel for a prototype project I am currently trying to perfect. I found it so hard to pick one, as I love all these beautiful pastel shades! The beautiful yarn I used is Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino.

Did you notice my funky new wood watch? It's by a company called Jord Watches that I discovered recently. I am so obsessed with all their designs, there are at least two others I want to add to my growing watch collection. And luckily for you, Jord are generously offering a watch of your choice to one of my followers! Just follow this link to enter - good luck!

In other news, I am currently working on several new quilt patterns, the first of which is a free mini pattern that will be available on Sunday. Here's a little sneak peek for you:

Last but not least, big shout out to my friend and fellow Riley Blake designer Lauren Nash (@transientart) whose first collection 'Bunnies & Cream' has just landed on my doorstep, and is to die for!! I can't wait to show you what I'm making with it!

Thanks for visiting and have a lovely day!
