The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: Thornbury Market 15 October 2017
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: I'm glad back in March 2013 that I wrote on the first #hexie I basted for my #hexiememoryquilt (I'd completely forgotten that I'd done this). Slowly, slowly, I keep adding to this quilt with fabric scraps. I'm in no hurry.
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: This was taken a few days ago, on the St. Kilda breakwater, while we were waiting for the Little Penguins to come in for the evening. This was such a beautiful experience we shared with friends visiting from overseas. So memorable. Magical. We will defin
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: Not much sewing or crafting or baking has been happening around here for the last 2 weeks. This sweet kitten has joined our family, we are all smitten with her. Meet Peppermint. She is a Balinese, low allergy breed, as my Shropshire boy is allergic to mos
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: My 7 year old daughter's creations, beautiful little notes to her school friends. #craftastherapy #creativekids #loveher
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: Rainbow smear art made by my 10 year old daughter. It's so beautiful. (Smear art idea from @josielewisart, it works a treat with a screen printing squeegee). #craftastherapy
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: I'm playing with paint this morning to calm a racing mind after receiving some challenging news. I've been inspired by @josielewisart, have a look at her feed of beautiful paint adventures (plus she is a #crazyhexielady, so obviously a good egg 😉)
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: Wonky quilting time (I've been putting off quilting this as it's HUGE. I've already got aching shoulders). #dreamarainbowhexagontrianglequilt #crazyhexielady #craftastherapy

The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: Yesterday my wee girl and I went to see the lovely Cintia from @mypoppetblogs run a demonstration at @spotlightstores about making softies. Since then, both my girls have been non-stop creating their own using Cintia's cute patterns. I'm so happy they fin
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: I love giving gifts for no reason, a "just because" present. Today I gifted fresh out of the oven chocolate chip cookies and a #handmade #hexagonfabrictray to an old friend who I've known for around 25 years now. I sewed up some baking paper, with a fanc
The Land of the Raspberry Rainbow: Today. Learning needle-turn appliqué with @carolynfriedlander. Feeling inspired and so grateful (thanks for organising @amitietextiles).
