Busy, busy, busy week





Wow - well that was a busy week.  Last week I was posting about the 'Giveaway' I was having on Facebook to celebrate reaching a huge milestone for me of 600 likes, now I have reached a ginormous 754 likes!!  Woo hoo and I've found some really talented people with great pages.  

 A few are having their own giveaway - check out the lovely Dotty Bo's giveaway or another lovely page Helen Fairweather Art.



I've made a lot of new stitch markers and needle holders this week.  Many of them for orders, but some new ones to go on the new website.  Fingers crossed it should be up and running by Valentines Day on 14th February.  It does mean that the current website is looking a little depleted of stock as i am busy listing all new stock on the new site.  I'm really excited about it as it will let me offer customers discount codes and gift vouchers.  it will even let customers earn reward points on their purchases that they can then 'spend' on items in the shop.  One of my lovely customers has done a bit of road testing for me to see if it all works properly and is easy to navigate.



I've got project bags cut out ready to sew................just need a few more hours in the day.

Now I'm off for a cup of tea and some chocolate..................................until next time.
