today's workshop went really well! I didn't get time to take any photos apart from this one of the fabric woven on the table loom throughout the day. I'm so impressed with how well everyone took to it! there was a professional photographer so I'll share more pictures soon!

packed and ready to go for this afternoons weaving workshop at chisenhale gallery, pop by if your in east London!

Came home to Lancashire for the week and spent this weekend doing my very favourite things which are going to the local farmers market and barn sale for thrifty shopping and a nice walk along the Leeds-Liverpool canal. I always forget how lovely and green it is here as opposed to London so try to make the most of it while I'm back.

After intending to have a quiet few weeks me and Toby have picked up new projects to keep the flat messy. He's working on screen printing some designs with his new screen printing kit (which I'm hoping he can help me turn into printed bags sometime soon) and I'm working on avoiding prepping for my weaving workshop by making little hats for innocent drinks big knit campaign for autumn, not sure my mini knit skills are up to scratch quite yet!! I still have to finish threading my big loom which is ridiculous because it's been sitting looking at me for weeks. All in good time!

Getting my 4 shaft loom ready for a workshop I'm holding in a few weeks. There will be chance to try loads of different weaving techniques and take something home with you. I will talk more about it soon!

Oh and I came home to THREE WHOLE ripe red tomatoes! exciting!

one little tomato is finally starting to look edible! exciting

I was really happy with how the Hush house supermarket went on Saturday but also really glad it's over so my living room is back to being a vaguely craft free zone and I can start concentrating on other things finally! Here are a few snapshots from my stall on the day. I added a few new products to fit into the family friendly vibe of the day which you can find over at my etsy. I'm thinking about selling my woven work separately from my DIY kits and velvet magpie things as two different etsy accounts. What do you think? Is that over complicating things a bit?

doing some nice girly knitting for once :)

getting nervous waiting for the market to open!
