A Few Things I'm Working On...

This week I've been sewing some felt owl masks that have been in my work-in-progress box for a while...

 

... winding some embroidery threads so I can add them to my main thread stash....


... packaging up and labelling some finished pieces...


... re-organising & tidying my packaging supplies...

 

... finishing sewing-together my slightly random blanket...

 

... making a start on weaving in the ends...


... working on a new layout for my Book Reviews page (when it's finished it'll look like my Crafty Tutorials page with lots of neat little thumbnails)...

 

... and choosing walls in my studio to hang some prints.


I've also ordered some copies of my new book, Super-Cute Felt Animals so I can offer signed copies in my shop in a few weeks time (my mum wants a copy too!).


The official UK publication date is September 12th but rather excitingly, copies of Super-Cute Felt Animals are already available over at Amazon! After months and months of working on this book & then keeping its contents a secret, it's so thrilling that copies of it are heading out into the world. I am so excited and nervous to hear what people think of it!

P.S. You can find a sneak peek at some of the projects from the book here.

You are so organised! I spent quite a long time winding threads last night too, it's oddly therapeutic....

It is! You can buy thread winders to speed up the process but actually I rather enjoy it, it can be quite meditative.
