i’m currently elbow deep in sanding and painting our next lot of embroidery stands 😅 it’s not very glamorous work so i don’t show a lot of it on insta BUT it is happening and we are doing twice as many stands as last release so we have been very very busy.

psst. the release date is the 6th of november and you can join our don’t miss out mailing list to get early access shopping in my bio.

there are only limited slots and of course all of the thread, fabric and goodies are included. tickets are available on the website 😍

my little christmas hoop is coming together! lots of chunky stitches using all 6 strands of thread 😍 took me a while to get used to the chunkiness but i’m totally digging it now.

there was leftover fabric from my ‘bee’ dress i made a few months ago… but not enough to make into something else. so rather than it go to waste, i decided to make adorable ‘baby bee’ magnetic fabric needle minders 😍🐝 so now you can be matching me and aurora with her ‘bee-dana’. available now in the shop.

5 months of this little munchkin… she’s getting so big guys! i can’t handle it 😭😭 there’s been a bit of rebelling, a growing obsession with tennis balls and she’s loosing teeth left right and centre 😍

i can’t believe it’s october already! 🤦🏼‍♀️ yesterday got away from me so here is this months thread club palette… a day late. it is already a fav of mine because all i can see is wattle, bottle brush, kangaroo paw and waratah 😍😍 so native bloom was the perfect fit suggested by my FB group!! spare colour palettes will be up on my website next week 🌿

i’ve had some caps put aside to stitch on for about 6 months now… i figured it was time to try them out with one of my mushroom stick and stitch designs!! can i just say i had hand cramps galore because of where i decided to stitch this little guy 😅😅😅 but well worth the effort!! a subtle little woodlands touch 🍄

our mini mushroom stick and stitch packs as well as the matching thread and needle packs are available in the shop.
