I know that some of you have been along for the ride since the beginning but some of you are newer to […] Opening the box. Today we welcome a new product to the Vetty Creations range: Sotema 20L linen. Sotema 20L linen is a lovely, high quality, Italian, 38 count linen.

It was an excellent exhibition, with an extremely wide range of embroideries on display. The exhibition was opened by Claudia Chan Shaw, author of “Collectomania” and previous presenter on ABC’s “Collectors” TV show. Claudia was an excellent choice for speaker […] |
