Processes, processes!
Sometimes it feels like it takes so long to get from one end of it to the other! Then you look at all the steps involved. A few happy sewing days and a small batch done seems like quite an achievement. I’m enjoying working with this lovely new @libertyfabrics as contrasting linings behind my card holders . A new colour injection makes me want to sew sew sew!

Messy desk usually means hard at work. I’ve been making a new batch of pouches so am stocked up in a few different colour ways.

Here’s some of my making process step 1,2,3,4 ➡️
From cutting, prepping to finished product.

*SAVE THE DATE*
This time next week (Saturday & Sunday)I’m taking part in a charity event in aid of @trusselltrust in the lovely setting of @mitchcanvasart home & garden. As noted above, there will be my work plus print work, jewellery, glasswork & ceramics. Alongside that there will be plants for sale and cakes and tea, tea & more tea !🫖 if you’re free please come and support and have a wander and chat to us all. Fingers crossed for the weather!!

My studio at Manchester craft will therefore be closed next Saturday so I am able to take part and bring all my products for you to see!

More photos to follow when more are made ☺️.

Day Off Wednesday…
Today I worked on an allotment for the 1st time ever! It was lovely & I was able to put some of the processes I’ve been learning on my horticulture course into practice. Now back to my day job tomorrow!! ☺️

A messy but productive studio. Sometimes I get so involved in my making that I forget to take photos or videos 🥴. I will try to do some more WIP’s !
Often I take a shot of a commission before I send it out to the customer- case in point. This was a khaki coloured leather chosen by a customer for one of my Tote bags which I love making🤍. It’s a great size to fit under your arm, has 2 slip in pockets and one zippered pocket inside with just a silhouette of the pockets showing on the exterior punctuated by a couple of stitches of ivory linen thread.

(Lovely prints in the background by the talented @nellsmithprints 🧡)

Sat all in a row…
I’ve been working on stock and also on some commissions for people lately which I will post. There’s been lots going on in the background even though a bit quiet on here.
These are some of my keyholders which people have been enjoying. I like having a play around with the colour combinations of the elastics against the leather choices. ☺️

Spring shades…

I like it when a customer chooses a colour combination that I haven’t yet tried . We took a while to decide on the tones. I think they’ve turned out better than I thought so here’s to more spring colours combinations!

Co-mission complete 👍🏻

It has been a bit of a mission this commission . It’s being sent today but the customer seems to like the outcome so 🤞. It’s made me a little nervous as I’ve never met who it’s going to , there’s been a few tricky decisions and it’s going all the way to Cornwall so there’s been a few emails back and to for a while. I like the outcome though so hopefully it will be multifunctional for what she needs. ☺️

#sunday magic…
What a beautiful Sunday , lots of things to be grateful for. .
Started off with a wholesome volunteering session @lightoakspark with some lovely, generous people giving up their time. Including Morris who taught me the basics of chess (which I’ve been wanting to learn). If you want to learn from a Chess master, he’s at the park most Sundays at 12pm to teach anyone 💚. So many things to bring a smile to your face.
Our studios were also open today and @susankane_studio was holding some watercolour workshops which were thoroughly enjoyed by those who were able to get a slot. Sue’s beautiful work accompanied by some spectacular fresh flowers for people to paint. Well done Sue ☺️ .
All topped off by the Manchester Community Choir putting on a great display to all centre & market visitors 🙏🏼🤲☺️

It’s been one of those perfect spring days in the centre today @manchestercraft . The blue sky and sun shining through the roof, the perfect temp and lots of people milling about whilst we work away in our studios. ☺️
The centre is open tomorrow 11-5pm too this weekend in-line with the Makers Markets outside the centre.
