Celebrating Angels

Merry Christmas Everybody x x

"I'll protect you from the hooded claw,

keep the vampires from your door,

when the chips are down, I'll be around,

with my undying, death defying love for you"

More hand~ stitched Christmas cards which are selling well through the gallery

Another Festive Friday in St Ives

We attended a Lantern~Making Workshop with artist Billy Wynter where we made these beautiful lanterns with willow and paper

First Festive Friday in St Ives

I made this patch to celebrate the first of three Festive Friday's in St Ives ~ tonight we are keeping the gallery open late, like many other traders, to catch a little bit of late~night~opening business. I'm looking forward to seeing all the town lit up and looking pretty, the kids are joining in too as there is a rumour Father Christmas might be visiting tonight..... Lots of people have made a lot of effort in St Ives this year so I think it will be special, I hope it is a success for all involved.

The patch is more sweet~smelling chocolate wrapper embroidered onto a batik patch, I love the spontaneity of this one.

A patch I made today using some of Carolyn's materials and a chocolate bar wrapper ~ I'm enjoying using all the sweetie wrappers we have around at the moment ~ they smell so lovely while I am working with them!
