CHRISTMAS IS COMING, THE GOOSE IS GETTING...

...ready to stitch! All kinds of festive bits and pieces have found their way into the warehouse, and I intend to make use of at least some of them before the big day hits (my house was sadly non-celebratory last year). If you pop over to Lisa's blog at The Red Thread you can check out the gorgeous Christmas designs we're well chuffed to be distributing for her. Meanwhile, we have two new designers to fill the sparkly shoes of Gertie, who's busy being mum to a beautiful little pudding of a boy. Lydia and Pearl have been working wonders, and I've decided that to use Lydia's fab folk iron-on embroidery transfers for this years bedecking of the halls.


How good are they? Perfect for Christmas, versatile enough for the rest of the year and you can reuse them up to seven times so you get a lot of embroidered bang for your buck. Perfect. I'm thinking that I'll be going with the Babushkas, before the marvellous Dot left us for shiny new pastures, she started on a project using the Festive Folk Words transfers.


Pearl has taken up the needle, stay tuned to see what she comes up with.
