Well, I really wasn’t planning on putting this up on the blog just yet. After all, its still way more than six months until the book will be released. But just yesterday I found a black and white picture of it on someone else’s blog. I can’t say I was pleased. However, I can’t withhold [...]

I don’t have much of my own to say today, so I’m directing you to a place where I go to drool and wish. If I had all the time in the world, I’d learn temari. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can fit much more into my life at the moment, so temari for me [...] I mentioned the other day that my favourite project out of the latest Inspirations magazine is a footstool by Hazel Blomkamp. I can’t put a photo of it here without breaching copyright, but I can provide a link to a page where there is a photo of it for you to see. If you click [...] Yesterday I finally got my gorgeous new embroidery hoops with stands up on my website. I wanted to really illustrate how versatile and useful they really are, so I took a series of photos ilustrating the different things that make them just a delight to work with.

In an effort to keep you happy, I’ve been through some of my teaching projects to see what there is that can be released for general sale. A new design [...] A few weeks ago I received an email from a lady in Canada who wanted a copy of The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion. A friend of hers was coming to Sydney on a visit, and had agreed to purchase her a copy while here and take it home to her. The lady wanted to know where [...] I’ve been spending some time over the last few days adding “like” buttons to my website (you can see one at the bottom of this post). I haven’t done all the pages yet, because it takes time, but I’m getting there! These buttons mean that you can “like” various pages of the Vetty Creations website [...] I’ve been busy doing my tax over the last few days, so I have nothing particularly interesting to tell you about what’s been happening here. Therefore, today I’d like to point you to the blog (Materialistic) and website of Kelly Fletcher. Kelly is a UK based embroidery designer. She comes from a graphic design and [...] |
