Just some pictures of things I have been up to. A chevron skirt packaged up.  Just finishing this dress for an Etsy order - different version of my Brandy Snapp dress. I had to take another dress into Conker on Friday. Was so nice to see some of my Battenberg dresses hanging there. I am having a super SALE on screenprinted...

When I lived in London I was sort of obsessed with Liberty. I hated all that Oxford Street stuff, but I'd love to walk through Soho & up Carnaby Street & just wonder around Liberty gazing at beautiful & expensive things I will never be able to afford.  {image from Google} Last week I walked passed an antique shop in a near town & saw...

The weather has turned back to drizzly & wet & grey around here. This morning I lit the fire at 9.30!

Bonjour mon ami. Sorry for this lack of blogging. Over Easter we crammed 9 people into our trusty old VW van & drove all the way from Devon, to Dover, to Calais, to Toulous & then to the Canal du Midi... It was pretty intense, but so so lovely.
