New projects: cushions
I have completely run out of space for wall hangings. What to do, what to do? There have to be other alternatives, right?

The woes of an independent designer
It’s been a hard year. At times scary. Challenging, frustrating, even annoying. And also exciting, invigorating, inspiring… happy.

A few little lizards
Once again, time has slipped away from me and I’ve fallen behind in my blogging. Ooops! All I can say in my defense is that this time of year is particularly intense for me, with all the patterns we offer as part of our traditional Christmas in July series.

Just a little bit of handwork
