A table full of threads, chatter and tulips 🌷
Free machine embroidery this morning and the ladies absolutely smashed it… feed dogs down, a bit of bravery, and off we went stitching the prettiest little Easter bouquets

Honestly never gets old seeing what people create when they just have a go ✨

I’ve just spent five weeks with these girls making jeans👖
No scrolling, loads of laughs, a bit of elastic-related drama 😅 and the odd TikTok dance.
They’ve absolutely smashed it.
Such good eggs 💛

A lovely day at Betty’s with our Lino Print workshop✨
Total beginners, but you’d never know it… such a calm, creative atmosphere and a really gorgeous group of people.

We spent the morning carving (carefully… mostly 😅) and the afternoon printing — and there’s something so satisfying about seeing your design come to life on paper.

Sophie was brilliant guiding everyone and working the press like a pro 👏

Safe to say… we’re all now thinking about Christmas cards already 🎄

Might have to make this a regular thing… watch this space 👀

think I’ve taken “immersive art” a bit too far…

I started off just admiring the Klimt fabrics
and somehow ended up making myself into the exhibition.

Tree of Life on the back, a mix of Klimt prints on the front
and now I’m basically wearing the gallery.Made using the Megan Nielsen Hovea quilt coat pattern
with a bit of Betty’s chaos thrown in.

If you can’t get to the gallery…
you might as well wear it.

I wasn’t there this weekend (feeling a bit rough 🤧),
but wow… what Hannah and the ladies created.
Four Sanda jackets in vintage Portsoy tweed, lined with proper personality and beautifully made.

All led by the brilliant Hannah - smashed it.
