some stripes and a bow tie

this photograph by Tim Walker was the source of inspiration behind the new Lewis and Lumi below. Too bad I missed his exhibition in London.



you may have read about the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act that has shaken the handmade community over the past few weeks. Please read about the issue here and check how you can help. read about the latest exemptions here.
Although this bill was passed in the States it does concern all of us toy makers and makers of products for children.

welcome 2009

2008 is now behind us, what a busy year it was.
i hope you had a good time last night and that you are now ready to embrace the new challenges of the new year. i can not wait to work on new projects that i will share with you in this space.
Above is my cherished bow tie made by the lovely Severine of single crochet, i also have my eyes on her vintage cameras.. merci encore Severine!

I wish you all a very happy 2009!

scenes #1

the pre Christmas days are definitely the busiest days of the year..
I finally managed to grab my camera today and took a few shots around the house. julian thinks the little lady in Welsh traditional costume is creepy but i love her.

babette

these festive Babette will be added to the shop tomorrow Friday 12th at about 3.30pm GMT.

I'm afraid that if you order a doll and live outside of the UK your package will not make it in time for Christmas, you can still place an order but please be aware your doll will certainly turn up after the festivities.
there may also be a Lewis rabbit in the shop if i can finish it in time.. and this will be the last shop update of the year.
thank you all for your support and enthusiasm dear friends, it means the world to me x
