Featured Kit this Week Dilly Dally Daisy Tea Cosy Kit

Well hello felt fans, happy Monday to you all! Today I thought I would share with you one of our most desired kits the Dilly Dally Tea Cosy Kit.

With the Royal Wedding, Jubilee, Olympics and of course the Royal birth, there really has never been a better time to participate in our quintessentially "British" tradition of a right good cuppa! Made in a very proper way with tea pot and kept warm in a beautifully handmade by you felt tea cosy, what could be a better way to spend time with you friends and family than over the great tradition of afternoon tea.

So with that said I thought I would leave you with a little video on our lovely Dilly Dally Daisy kit.

But for now keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep felting :)

New Product shoot for Kits, Courses and Handmade...

Hello lovely peeps... well what can I say other than I have been a busy, busy bee with so much going on over the last 12 months! I hardly know where to start.

Well after many, many positive and wonderful comments about my glorious felt kits, courses and handmade ranges... I also heard that my picture representations in other words my photos, just didn't show off how glorious the designs are in real life.

With that feed back and after 30+ years creating and 4 solid years designing the current range... I decided it was time for action! So I set too and enlisted the help of an amazing photographer. It makes such a huge difference to the representation of designs that I wondered why I didn't do it before.

So one sunny morning in late June the wonderful Sara Moseley AKA The Great Little Picture Company arrived with the larges camera and lens I have ever seen! With in a "flash" if you pardon the pun we were underway with the photo shoot. A little over an hour later we had the most wonderful collection of photos and within 24 hours they arrived electronically for me to use.

I have selected some of my favourites for you to peruse and many more can be viewed on the website and facebook page.

Introducing Regalily's Time for Afternoon Tea Tea Cosy Kit...

Gooooooood morning lovely makers, creators and all round lovely people! Today I thought I would give you the first peek at one of my brand new felt making kits.  Its regally inspired as you will probably guess from the title... and features 4 stunning roses, these rose are a brand spanking new rose design exclusive to Tigerlily Makes.  Designed by Lisa Marie Olson (that's me) AKA Miss Tigerlily and are a stunning and realistic representation of Miss Tigerlily's passion for all things floral.  The rose itself has been developed and designed to be made effectively and easily, so this makes it very unique not only in look but by the way it is constructed.

As many of you know Miss Tigerlily is a published and accredited paper crafts demonstrator and is well know for mixing paper and textiles together.  This particular rose has been adapted from an old paper craft technique that Miss Tigerlily Developed many years ago. So drawing on her previous years experience of both paper craft and textiles, Miss Tigerlily has breathed new life into this signature rose.

This is then combined with another Miss T passion and that is tea, so a tea cosy and very properly done roses are the perfect combination! Add to that the regency style stripe and you have all the makings of an afternoon tea delight.

This kit is not on the website just yet as my lovely web developer is hard at it, making all the changes for all the new kits we are currently launching! BUT you can email to order yours now info@tigerlilymakes.co.uk.

But for now keeeeeeeeeeep felting!
