Daily Make (5 & 6)
My excuse for missing an entire week of #dailymake2015 was my birthday last weekend. I made a dress for my birthday party and did a lot of work on petals for Interlace as our exhibition deadline looms ever closer! I’ve also got back into knitting which is a joy. Some of the last couple of week’s…

Daily Make (4)
Again, it has been a tough week of deadlines and not as much making as I would like, with an added stinky cold for the last few days. I’m finally having a weekend off, after working 27 days straight through in January, and am spending it planning and preparing for a big birthday party next…

Sewing by Candlelight
My holidays tend to involve being outdoors a lot, either camping or on a canal boat. I love the quiet of an evening on the canal or in a rural campsite, watching the sun go down or (more likely) sitting inside listening to the rain hammer down. Neither location is good for evening sewing, so I…
