Babies, Rav day, and a bit behind x

My brilliant sister has been busy ! Congratulations to Joanna and Joseph and welcome to Lily Violet Bright !


proud Nanny !

Mum and Lily

Bathtime !

Just a quick post to say we were at the first ever Uk Ravelry day on Saturday which dispite the weather was a great sucess, huge thanks to Jo and the team for organising a fab day and we hope to be at the next one in 2010 ! It was great being able to put faces to names and lovely to meet lots of our customers x

As some of you may know Mum has been away the last few weeks, and to be honest I have been struggling a bit to keep up, I have had the children in the shop with me over halfterm and although I have had some help in the shop things are a bit behind, I am desperatly trying to catch up with emails and back orders so please feel free to nudge me if you are waiting for something ! So please bear with me and apologies x x x

And as you can see above there is a new baby in the family, my wonderful sister Joanna gave birth to Lily Violet weighing in at a healthy 8lb 1oz, and is the reason Mum is in Australia lending a hand with the two big brothers aged 3 and 1 !

Postage :(

Just a quick post to say unfortunetly with the Royal Mail price increases we have had to up our postage rates, as before we have kept it to a minimum and it is still one price no matter the size of your order.
We have also decided to continue with the free 2nd class postage for another 3 months so its not all bad news ....................and even better sign up for our newsletter and recieve 10% off your next order !

Boo to Royal Mail ........... Yay to us !

Wonderwool 2009 !

Hi,

Well that took 2 weeks to recover from Wonderwool Wales ! After transporting the whole shop (yes units and all !) we set up shop for the weekend, A fab time was had by all and huge thanks to Janny T, Sue and all the boys for help with setting up.

Janny T !

It was brill to meet up with all our friends, online customers and other traders for a hectic Saturday, we gave out all our Ravelry badges pretty quick and it was really nice to see a large Rav presence there.

Here's some pics x

Love Patisserie moment!

Didn't get out to buy much, although a few things slipped through ! some gorgeous silk from Artisan Yarns, some alpaca socks for a pressie (never finish my own hand knits!) and some merino 4ply from John Arbon, a slipper felting kit and of course Love Patisserie tarts ! It was exhausting but we loved every minute of it so until next year.....................or maybe June !

Next stop - Uk Ravlery Day in Coventry on June the 6th.

Why is it......

That I want to make so many things ! I spend hours looking and queueing projects on Ravelry yet I never seem to complete anything, yes I am a serial starter !

'Hello my name is Lisa and I have been a serial starter for 2 years now ! ' is really what I should say, shame myself into finishing some things, so I have decided to make this......

from start to finish and I absolutely will blog regular updates of my progress !
