Tea & Leaf Tuesday ....

...and it's out on the terrace for tea today!

The sun is shining...

...it's WARM....mmmmmmmm

...and I'm having a mug of "Japon Lime"...

Green tea with lime flowers.

Feels just right this morning.




Sitting on the leaf are a couple of my "Elegant Eggs" that have been featured in another Popular Crafts issue. This is the Easter edition, out now.

I've used some of the beautiful hand-made lace that I picked up at that marche in Mirepoix last year.

See! There is ALWAYS a use for something special...

...and we should continue to buy bits and pieces and not feel guilty at all!

..in print again!...

The "Valentines" issue of Popular Crafts is out now...

...and my project is the very first one in there!!



It's a little cross-stitch heart on the front of a felt pocket...

...just the thing to hold a special note for that special someone :-)


The cross-stitch panel is available as a kit in my shop.

Published!

Out today...."Countdown to Christmas"......Popular Crafts (Issue 11).


On page 45 is my little house project!




Instructions for one of my little pointy-top houses....

...to make as a card, gift tag or tree decoration.



I've put together a kit, with all the textile materials required to make two house panels. These are available here.

Other projects are in the pipeline too....

...but I have to keep quiet about them for now ;-)
