Happy to see you...

Penelope has been designing beautiful handmade dolls for a while.
She even dresses them up with gorgeous clothes using Liberty fabric and patterns from Citronille which by the way, I highly recommend if you want to sew gorgeous French outfits for your kids.
And now Penelope has opened her first workshop/boutique and like everything she does, it is simply beautiful so if you are in France near Les Sables d'Olonne, make sure you pay her a visit

Horaires d’été :
du mardi au samedi de 10h à 12h et de 14h à 19h.
Et sur rendez-vous au 06 86 45 93 68.


Cela fait quelques années déja que Pénélope crée de jolies poupées.
Elle leur fait meme de tres jolis habits en tissu Liberty et utilisant les patrons de Citronille - une marque que je recommende chaudement si vous souhaitez coudre de beaux habits pour vos enfants. 
Et maintenant Pénélope a ouvert son premier atelier/boutique et comme tout ce qu'elle fait, c'est simplement magnifique. Si vous passez dans la région des Sables d'Olonne, ne manquez pas d'aller lui dire bonjour.

What would you do with 50m of gorgeousness?

What would you do with these colourful yarns by House Doctor DK?
Earlier this week, we gift-wrapped some empty boxes for the photoshoot our Xmas catalogue front cover and I loved how simple and stylish it looked all our gifts look so I think these would be perfect to add a final touch to a plain paper...and I LOVE the wooden vintage spool that comes with it!

En debut de semaine, nous avons emballe des boites vides pour le photoshoot de la premiere de couv de notre cataogue de Noel et j'ai adore a quel point le resultat etait simple et chic...Ces bobines de coton vont etre parfaites pour ajouter une touche finale a un papier cadeau tout simple...et J'ADORE la bobine en bois au look vintage qui est fournie avec!

Crafty Ladies


Billie at 5 weeks old.

My mum belongs to a group of crafty ladies that get together every fortnight to knit, embroider, quilt, basically whatever crafty project they have going and while doing so, they have a good ol' catch up. They have a tradition where if any of the group is expecting a grandchild, they get together and make a quilt. I think it's a great tradition and they have recently completed one for my niece, Billie. Billie's mother is mad about her cats so the theme of the quilt was their own pets - past and present. The ladies did such a great job that I just had to share.
