To Err is Human

I do make quite a few mistakes during my sewing days and quite often end up chopping up bits that I don't want to go to waste. Yesterday, whilst in one of my tidy up modes (which does not happen very often), I came across a stash of such mistakes. Of course, not wanting to tidy I immediately started playing and experimenting.

I had been cutting out my brooch tags earlier in the day and soon was busy sewing said mistakes to brooch tags to create a little bunch of tags.

I also managed to make a little fabric tag whilst I was at it.  So much for having a tidy up, will leave that for another day.

Wedding Time

I love this time of year when I get lots of Wedding Orders.  Today I have been creating some new Lavender Favours.  You can order these here Lavender Wedding Favours.  They are £20.00 for a set of 10.

Some time ago I was contacted via Notonthehighstreet.com to ask if I could send some brooches for a possible feature in You and Your Wedding Magazine.  I was super excited as I posted them off.  The feature was to possible appear in Jan/Feb issue.  But, was disappointed to find that it was not included.

Then just the other day I was tweeted to say it had been spotted in the March/April issue which has just come out.  I rushed off, buying numerous copies and there is was.  Whoooo hooooo.  I love the fact that they attached it to a bouquet, it looks so pretty.  Makes me realise that perhaps I should be more inventive with my photography.

Here is the photo from the magazine.

Thank you Theo
