I had the sun on my back this morning while sitting and sewing, stocking up for markets these coming weekends. Not much space left on the desk in between all the piles...
Lots of new colours and patterns in this bunch, including purple owls and some whales, which i haven't done for ages.
A very productive morning and i thoroughly believe that there is nothing better than soaking up some winter sun. Good for the soul.
Some rather nice news in my inbox this morning... i did make the top 25 list of mom-shops over the Circle of Moms! Thanks muchly for all the votes guys.
I'm # 20, which is none too shabby :)
I've been experimenting a little with sewing onto photos and with pages from a op-shopped dictionary. I call this fellow The Book Bot :)
Check out the creative spaces blog... it's so nice to click around and see what everyone's up to.
And i completely forgot to blog a little tutorial i did over here. If you fancy having a go at sewing on paper yourself this is an easy sone to start you off...
I have never actually had a storewide sale. Can you imagine? This is something we shall remedy straight away. 20% off every little thing in my shop until the 21st of May! Enter the code 20OFFTHANKS during checkout, postage costs remain the same.
EDIT 19th May: Sale will now go through until May 28th! Thanks.
Making for market has been my week so far... stocking up on lots of colourful cards and wallpaper notebooks. This weekend i'm tripping down to Melbourne for the Yarraville Market.
The cute pink owl is new this week, i couldn't go without an owl :)
I'll also have with me a new batch of the bad tie bots! Only a small batch this time. Remember these fellows made from vintage ties? Perfect little door hangers or ornaments to geek up any corner of the house.
If you're a market going type person, do note that i've added a link on the right hand column which has all of my upcoming market dates. Would love to see you in 'real life'!

...one might join the Moonmum mailing list by popping one's email address in the box on the right hand side there. Just to ensure that one is kept in the loop for upcoming sales which could be just around the corner...
Across the sewing machine today were some elephants for my wallpaper notebooks. I adore this wallpaper because of the colours in it - wild pinks, orange and a limey greeny mustard colour. It's a strange mix isn't it? Thank you to the '70s.
What a dreary start to the week... grey clouds and drizzling rain on a Monday morning made staying in bed a very appealing option. But on with the week! I have a phone call to the tax office to look forward to today (so not) and i'm working on a little tutorial to share with you all later in the week.
