Big Top Jamboree

It seems to be the spring time for Jamborees - which is fine and dandy in my book!

Lost in the Forest will be appearing at the Big Top Jamboree in Dundee on 17th May....see what The Skinny have to say about it.....

Dear Blogger, it's been one month since my last confession....

Happy New Year!! 

To be fair, December was awfully busy, and I was ill throughout the whole of it, so I shall not dwell on my lack of blogging, or really tell you about what I've been doing - I shall just tell you of the new things going on in the new and currently rather snowy year!

As well as all the new products I'm working on (which will be revealed in time..) there are a few things popping up in January that are worth mentioning....

Firstly Dolly Mixtures is a new event hosted by The Electric Circus, which Magpie are helping to organise some fabulous crafty stalls - Thursday night fun! Hop on over to the Magpie blog to find out more...

Secondly I will be running a little workshop/demo at the Made in the Shade Maisonette over in Glasgow towards the end of the month....check out their blog for more info and I'm sure you will see a little sneaky peak of what I'm doing here closer to the time.

Thirdly.....well, just wait and see! It is the new year after all and it's all about surprises and new beginnings :)

MarchéMarché

I can't believe I haven't mentioned MarchéMarché yet...the time is fast approaching....next Saturday 12pm onwards to be precise and I am very excited to be involved. It's being organised by Kirsty Anderson of Wooden Tree and Susie Brown of SusieMaroon....there will be fancy cake, cocktails music...oh yeah and trinkets, doodles and fabulous things by a selection of Edinburghs finest... Far from your standard table trawling twee craft affair, which makes you flail your arms, yelp and run in the opposite direction, MarchéMarché oozes pizzazz....and I know you like pizzazz, so I expect to see you there?

Today I shall be working on all kinds of fabulous delights which (if they work) will be Lost in the Forest at MarchéMarché exclusives! Hoorah!

Pendants

I'm having a gentle end to what seems like the longest, shortest, worst, craziest week ever. Lots of glueing and embroidering and listening to fabulous things are being done today. Printing of new fabrics is not. My printer chooses it's times to break rather well. I managed to get a few new designs printed, but will have to investigate further into why it suddenly doesn't want to work today.

new faric, purses and lockets in progress

For any Scottish Sunday Times readers, you may have seen the Made in the Shade feature today...for those who aren't go here to see it. Only 2 weeks to go now....less than actually! It's going to be great fun, so get the date (25th October) in your diary and keep checking the website for updates.

Made in the Shade

Hoorah! Lost in the Forest has been accepted to sell at Made in the Shade a fabulous indie market at the Lighthouse in Glasgow.
25th October - have it tattooed on your brain so you don't miss it....regular reminders will be forthcoming :)
