Where did January go ?

A belated Happy 2019 to all !
I Hope everyone had a good Christmas & New Year .

We enjoyed the company of Our Daughter and Son in Law and our grandson who came to stay with us for his first Christmas . It's hard to believe we are one month into 2019 already and almost too late to write a January news blog .
The end of last year was really busy, with  the last few workshops , orders , and trying to keep at least something in the galleries , particularly the hares and sheep doorstops. Some of which, were to be surprise gifts for Christmas , which was very nice to learn ,  including   a couple of Richard's cushions . I had to close my order book before Christmas for hares and Doorstops until  March, just to enable me to get on top of things and to prepare for the first few workshops of 2019 .

We will have some new kits for this year , and I've  also been working on a new design of stabbing cushion which I've been trying out for myself and which I'm really excited about . I have already  made a few , and will be making them available to purchase soon , if you would like one .


I am always very grateful when I receive any correspondence , particularly from anyone who has purchased one of our  creations or received one as a gift  . This is very rewarding and much appreciated . I'd really like to share with you the latest one sent by young Jason who'd been given one of my needle felted soldiers as a gift . He took the time to do a splendid drawing of his soldier and it really made my day when it arrived with the post  .
Thank You Jason !





During the next few days we will be going  into the Yorkshire dales, where I have been asked to do a demonstration for a crafter's guild .  This  will be a new & different experience to running the workshops  . and I am really looking forward to the opportunity to introduce some  more craft enthusiasts to what it is we do ourselves, and visit them in their picturesque corner of the Dales . Hopefully the weather will stay reasonable for our trip and the roads will be ice and snow free .

 We have been quite fortunate in general with the weather since Christmas time , haven't we ?  We managed a couple of days to make the most of it on our recent visit to our Daughters , on the way down, we stopped off as usual for a coffee at Thorpe farm near Greta Bridge  on the A66 where we took a few photos of the young Herdwick rams they had in the animal enclosures there . we had a lovely walk with our Grandson along the picturesque Chesterfield Canal one beautiful frosty morning too .
Looking forward to the rest of the year , and hopefully catching up with some of you at the workshops , whether you are returning  or it's your first time .
Best wishes !
