Country Living

The April issue of Country Living (UK) is now in the shops...

... and look what's on page 14:


Three of my felt bird brooches :)

Country Living is such a gorgeous magazine, it's wonderful to have my birdies featured.

Also wonderful - the flurry of sweet messages from friends, customers, blog readers & Twitter friends over the past few days, saying they'd got their subscriber copies and were delighted to see my birds. People are so nice!

UPDATE: I'm gradually turning my bird designs into sewing patterns! Visit my shop to see all my printable PDF patterns:

Honestly, I think I would rather read magazines like this to some others out there. I love fashion and everything alike but fashion and gossip seem to go hand-in-hand in magazines now and I can't stand gossip! Congrats on getting your birdies in the magazine. Well and truly deserved. They're gorgeous!

How great! Congratulations, you must be feeling pretty chuffed with yourself! The birds look great in the magazine feature.

Can I ask, did you approach the magazine with your product, or did they find you and ask you? Sorry if my question is too forthright, I'm just interested in how these things work - I've got some possible future projects floating around in my head.
