Its F-F-F-Freezing!

Well, the weather has got colder and today I decided to book my table at the Boscombe Vintage Market again on 18th December.  So now I'm thinking I am going to have to acquire some thermal underwear and some of those heat thingies to put in my gloves and shoes.  Oh, and maybe bring a blanket or something to snuggle into.  Last month was cold when outdoors for several hours, so am envisioning that I will become a block of ice in two weeks time.  All in the name of a sale.

I have been making new things with my waterproof fabric, namely washbags, only made a few so far, jsut to see if they sell or not.  Here are some pictures:





I also put the make-up bags on Folksy for sale, here is the link:  Folksy Shop

wow, how long has it been?!

Eeek, long blog silence, don't know where the time goes these days.  The past couple of months have been quite busy, with one thing and another.  I have embarked on the school christmas fayre circuit, with mixed results.  But keep doing it because the next one could be THE one :-)  I am getting my name out there which can only be good and at each fayre, my business cards have gone to a few visitors, so fingers crossed I get some business from that avenue.

Last week my lovely friend and fab photographer, Nancy, took photos of all my stock so I will be slowly putting them on here and on facebook and the website.  I have been tinkering with the website a bit this week, finally happy with the colour scheme.  The link to it is www.daydreamandsewing.co.uk  It is still a work in progress, I will get there in the end :-)

Here are a few of Nancy's photos:








I have also branched into making make-up bags.  A couple of weeks ago I bought some waterproof fabric to put inside them and here are my new designs:



and this one, my favourite out of the three designs, sold this morning:


Well, off now, hopefully I won't be so long next time coming back :-)  Check out my facebook page as I update that more often - www.facebook.com/daydreamingandsewing
