On a roll with the Rainbow!

Don't you just hate it when something was right under your nose all the time…

…but the upside is I found my perfect location this morning and everything fell into place. Never mind that I've been scouring the neighbourhood and never setting out on a car journey without my quilt and camera in tow and all along the ideal backdrop was in my home! Go figure!

I'm really pleased – finally – with the photographs, but like I said it wasn't a point and shoot quilt and it took quite a bit of magic with my fab camera to get it just right!

I think the colours are as near to perfect as I could get without doing a professional shoot. Anyway it's up on my Etsy site now. Hooray.

Really think it's time I got my pink puffball up too now that I'm on a roll and all that (really don't want to sell that one! Ssssshhhh, don't tell Guy!).

Let me know what you think.

Thanks for looking.

Must keep busy!

I hate it when my kids go back to school, I miss them so much and today is no exception! My boys gone off to do his first day in Juniors and Tink, her first day in year 1. 

Off they went full of nerves and excitment…

…there I stood – full of tears and sadness!

…must keep occupied, must keep occupied… cleaning is the order of the day but it gives me so much time to think about how much I miss them, so I thought a quick distraction and a quick blog.

I photographed my terracotta peg bag before I sent it to it's new owner. They were taken in a rush but I'm really pleased with how they came out considering. I used a different paper than I used for the green peg bag – this one called for more gold tones!

Right… back to the housework before an afternoon with two lovely ladies before I can pick up my two babies.

My Etsy shop…

…or should that be my Etsy item!!!

…I've finally managed to set up my Etsy shop today and with that I have put up for sale my newly named 'Terracotta Peg Bag'.

This was a difficult one to photograph to get the colours as close a match to the peg bag but I finally did it. I think this is as pretty much the most accurate colour representation I could get… I love my camera!

Hopefully if I get myself in gear I'll have a few more items for sale soon.

Thanks for looking
