New Rainbow Adventures


SO I've cogitated and cagitated and whatever else it is that Lloyd Grossman used to do in the 80s version of Masterchef.  And.  I have come to the conclusion that red and black is not as good as a rainbow -

SO FYI - THIS is the new label.... soon be seen on a range of baby booties, dog coats, craft bags and the like.  Well maybe not exactly soooooon per se, but coming, hopefully, by christmas if we are lucky!

Finally some creativity

Well, its all been go in this far Western tip of the UK - and April and May passed super speedily - weddings (quite a big on in the UK I believe) plus a few of my own - and then super crazy work -ness as I found myself spending most of the month in London away from home working on a few projects ( and another wedding dress!)

And now I am back and caught up, and off to another wedding on Saturday.... the bride will be wearing an original by Annalise Harvey - Bespoke Bridal Design (my label) and as its the first dress of my company's 'season' it will be super exciting - not to mention that she is a dear friend and all that jazz - goes absolutely without saying.

Due to the opening up of a fab  craft cafe  in St Austell by the lovely and very talented Sarah Drew I will be running a few workshops over the coming months - and this has prompted me to take some action with this site.  I was always going to put my craft makey bits here - and now I have an opportunity to sell some too!

So a label has been designed - featuring Tilly of course - as she's become something of a mascot on this adventure out West - and with a slight Wild West feel given our location!


Over the coming months I write more about new things I am trying out - and the workshops I do - but here's a small example!  Tweed booties for the discerning babies out there - lined with Liberty Lawn and inter lined with soft fleecey soles for added snugginess and comfort.


Right - need to get on with the day - but keep a look out for more exciting madebyhand goodies.
