Its ages since I blogged and as each event and occasion has passed(and lots has happened) I meant to share  it and never found the time. The big thing is that I got married!



We flew out to Cyprus with 22 family and friends, we had such a lovely time and I am now Mrs Malloy!

I had a stand at the Harrogate `British Trade Craft Fair` in May to build up my stockists. 
It was a fabulous experience I met so many lovely people, crafty arty folks always seem to be genuinely nice people. 
It was stressful to start with as I worried about... well everything to be honest, but it all worked out well


It was a tiny space 2m x1m but it took the best part of a day to decide what to put where 
and how to fasten things in place. The good news is I had lots of interest managed to get orders from lots of shops from Fife to Torquay and a few in between which is great! 


Jo Clark design had the stall opposite http://www.joclarkdesign.co.uk/ lovely hand drawn illustrated cards & prints.



and opposite to my left was the Laura BCTF newcomers winner. A very talented lady when it comes to making jewellery and silver teapots!

New Stuff I Made..


Here`s some new things I`ve been working on. I have been trying out a reverse applique technique that I learnt a long time ago, but trying to use it in a different way than I had used it before. You stitch 3 or 4 layers of different fabric together,  stitch your picture on top as a line drawing  
and then cut back to whichever layer you want to show 
...and this is what came out
