Down around the corner, half a mile from here...

Hello!
 Do you fancy having a day with like minded, lovely people, stitching, talking, inspiring others and maybe being inspired, in stunning surroundings of a stately home in Shropshire?
For a Haberdashery Hand Stitched Brooch Workshop???
 We could be stitching little brooches like these...
 drinking tea and eating cake...
If you do and fancy coming along, there are one or two places left for Saturday April 28th, Haberdashery Brooch Workshop £47. 00 10am ~ 4pm...
just pop over to here for all the info.
Thanks for stopping by. x

Well Viv, I JUST visited your last posting and commented about your magazine article and all your great creations. Love them all and feel inspired.

Take tea together? Love to do that with you.

I'll bring the Devon cream and goodies.

Dear Viv

Sadly being on the other side of the world in NZ I can't - hey I could win Lotto this week - then count me IN!!!
I just love the stitching you do!

Against my better judgement I atttended a meet-and-greet of fellow female etsy makers. I should have felt the doom when they asked me to wear white or sparkles.
I wore your gorgeous purse to the event, where upon tow women pounced on it, examined it closely saying things lie, "oh, thats just some..... with ..... on it. I told them all aobut you and mentio9ned your name several times and their eyes just glazed.

I bet those women will have copies of that purse in their shop quicker than you cans "rip off".
Needless to say I drank far roo much champagne and high heeled it out of there at the first oportunity.

Momtrepeneurs... sheesh.
