Stop Press!!! Beautiful handmade gift from a talented designer…

Hello lovely peeps, makers and creators.

Today I just simply have to share with you the wonderful work of the amazingly talented Skye German. For those of you who don’t know I am an accredited arts & crafts tutor and used to travel the country demonstrating a whole host of crafts and running workshops for a well know craft company. When I opened the felt boutique… I found I had a lot of surplus stash, tools and equipment.

Not wanting this to go to waste I set about selling my personal items on Ebay and this believe it or not is how I met the amazing Skye German. Skye was the winning bidder for my craft stash and we immediately struck a rapport via our email communications. That chance meeting has led to a very special friendship that has been on-going for about 2 years now.

Skye is a wonderful person whom is a full time carer and designs and creates wonderful things to sell around that.  Skyes designs and creations are all very bespoke and unique and are very popular with her audience.

Pictured above is one of Skyes amazing designs which she customised especially for me with my name on it! I immediately fell in love with it when I received it, and it now takes pride of place on our sofa.

I feel so blessed and lucky to have met such wonderfully kind and generous friends in my industry sector.

Thank you so much Skye for your wonderful gift, I absolutely adore it.

Tigerlily Makes is soon to celebrate it's 1st Birthday...

Well hello lovely makers and creators, well the Tigerlily Boutique has some great news to share with you this morning.  in just a couple of short months Tigerlily Makes The Felt-making Boutique reaches its 1st year of felty fun!  Yes its been nearly a year since the Boutique opened hasn't it gone quickly.

In light of current times Tigerlily feels that this is a fabulous achievement and therefore the occasion should not be passed by without celebration.

Saturday 9th April is the day and Tigerlily Makes is the place to be for a wonderful day of free demonstrations, raffle prizes and an champagne reception to finish the day off in style.  In recognition of Tigerlily's loyal customers and to help support local charities, Tigerlily Makes will be hosting a charity fundraiser in support of the wonderful work that St Giles Hospice do not only with their residential units but their day centres and the care that St Giles nurses provide out in the community. The day is a non profit making day and all proceeds raised from the raffle and collections will go directly to the charity.

Tigerlily Makes is also part of the St Giles Lottery Discount Card Scheme, which entitles participants 10% of any purchases within the boutique.

Hope to see many of you there as it will prove to be a fantastic day with free demonstrations from Sally Williams of Hug Knitting, Mary Halbert of Crazy Mary Crafts and Tigerlily's own designer Lisa Marie Olson.

Tigerlily Makes in Partnership with St Giles Hospice


Well hello lovely makers and creators, today I wanted to share with you the wonderful work our local St Giles Hospices do both in their specially designed centers but also  in the community.

St Giles Hospice and Tigerlily Makes are working in partnership, Tigerlily Makes is participating in the St Giles Hospice discount scheme. This is a scheme set up by St Giles in order to help those seriously ill patients and their families, the scheme issues patients with a discount card which they can then use to redeem special discounts in the various participating retail shops. As we all know illness can not only have a debilitating effect on our health it can also affect our pockets too.

These hospices are play vital support mechanisms within the  local community to both patients and their families.

The care facilities includes residential care, day care and community nurses that care for patients in the home.

Fundraising is a vital part to raising funds to continue the care in the community that St Giles provide and Tigerlily Makes is proud to support St Giles.

Tigerlily Makes is turning 1 year old in just a few short months and plans are already underway for a fabulous St Giles Charity event on April 9th 2011, with fabulous free demonstrations, drinks and nibbles and so much more.

Morning all well am just back from a mammoth 6 day, yes 6 day show at the NEC the Clothes Show Live.  Will be bringing you the Clothes Show Diaries very soon.

Sara Moseley Photography empowering people and renewing self confidence

Images courtesy of Sara Moseley Photography permissions have been granted for the use of the photos and are subject to copyright


Sara’s passion for creating beautiful images is infectious.   Her relaxed nature and ability to put you at ease ensures she captures those moments of interaction and emotion that make you and your family unique.

Specialising in photographing women and driven by a keen interest in capturing the very essence of you, Sara draws on her own experience of being a mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, friend, photographer and business woman, to produce fresh, vibrant and emotive images you will never tire of looking at.

One of the key things that grabbed my attention about Sara is her absolute passion for making women feel good about themselves and seeing the beauty that lies in all of us... through a celebration of wonderful images from her La Femme collection. I was so taken with the incredible quality and subtlety of this range I have put myself down for a La Femme Session.

La Femme embraces everything that a woman would want to be and more and gives each of us the opportunity to emancipate our feminine side.  Embracing who we are, exactly as we are, as Sara states "because you're gorgeous and deserve the best"

So what are you waiting for give yourself the perfect gift experience and capture the magic that is you!

You can follow Sara on Twitter

The Allen Brown Gallery Contemporary Precious Jewellery ethically traded!!!


Images & Designs courtesy of Allen Brown Gallery and subject to Copyright

Good morning lovely makers and creators, this morning I wanted to introduce you to the Allen Brown Gallery.  

Featured above is just a small selection of the stunning pieces that the Allen Brown Gallery produces, this is master craftsmanship at its best.  The Allen Brown team are dedicated and passionate about sourcing ethical and fairly traded materials, as well as choosing conflict free diamonds for the incredible jewellery pieces that the Allen Brown Gallery designs and makes.

We feel that it is the job of a proactive, innovative and forward-looking business like the Allen Brown Gallery  to be at the forefront of new ideas, not just in design-which is what initially draws many people to them-but increasingly in this globalised world, to encourage people to consider the route source of their precious items.

Ethical Trading/Fair Trading 
Allen Brown are well-known locally for using unusual gemstones and coloured diamonds, highlighted in their frequent use in collections over the past 22 years.  They believe that the best way to achieve ethical trading is to deal with the mines and their representatives themselves. So Allen has been sourcing stones personally for a number of years, working with a few hand picked mines in Brazil they know that the workers are fairly treated and employed in safe working conditions.

Conflict Free Diamonds
Allen Brown Diamonds are purchased from legitimate sources not involved in funding conflict in compliance with United Nations Resolutions.  Sellers guarantee that they are conflict free, based on personal knowledge and/or written guarantees provided by the seller of these diamonds.

I have to say that my husband and I have had personal experience with the Allen Brown Gallery, my husbands parents recently had their 40th wedding anniversary and it was to be a year of celebrations.  My husband wanted something extra special to mark this milestone and momentous occasion, the Allen Brown Gallery delivered on every level from the very first meeting, to outline sketches, to keeping on budget and delivering on time.  Nothing was too much trouble for Allen and his team and care was taken to listen to our requirements and make something unique for the gift receivers, something that was very special to them in design and finish.

If you are planning a very special precious piece of jewellery for a loved one or family member this Christmas then you don't need to look any further the Allen Brown Gallery is the ONLY place you need to visit.

The lavender bags can be used as a decorative hanging, hung in a wardrobe to protect clothes from moths or the smaller bags could be tucked inside a pillowcase to encourage relaxation and sleep. The process of hand embroidery means that every items will vary slightly from the image provided.

I have to say that I have not seen embroidery quite like Caroline's, I adore her designs and will be making a purchase to sell in the boutique very soon.

Nottingham Hospice great services and Christmas Santa Stroll finishing at Nottingham Castle

Nottingham Hospice provide Care Services for their community from the Daycare facility in the heart of Nottingham, and through their Hospice at Home service within the patients’ own homes. The primary aim is to provide ever improving, free professional Daycare and Homecare for all patients over the age of eighteen within the Nottingham area, in order that patients may live their lives as fully as possible and be able to die with peace and dignity.

It costs £2.5 million to run the hospice a year. Of this, approximately 30% comes from NHS Nottinghamshire and the remaining £1.8 million has to be raised from donations, fundraising activities and events, the Hospice Lottery and through the Hospice shops.


The hospice have a great range of charity cards online which can be viewed by clicking here.


This year they are hosting the Christmas Santa Stroll event for the whole family as follows 


Nottingham City Centre- Starting and Finishing at Nottingham Castle Sunday 5th December 2010 - Registration starts at 10am, Walk starts at 11:30am.


This will be Nottingham Hospices first ever sponsored Santa Stroll event which starts and finishes at Nottingham Castle. It's a short stroll (1 mile) through the City of Nottingham with everyone following Santa’s sleigh dressed as Santa!

I hope that many of you will be able to support  this worthy cause as its something we may all need at some point or other in our lives.

Featured Artist Russell Wilson with his Knitting Hill Cards for Clintons



Well today we have a treat for you... several months ago a lovely young man came into the felt boutique to buy some wool to finish off a needle felting project he was doing for Clinton's cards.  It was all top secret and we couldn't let on what was going on, as all the characters had to be physically made and approved before going to press.

Well I am very happy to say that the process has now been completed, all the needle felted characters chosen and immortalized in print... I think you will agree from the photos above that the results are breathtaking.

The collection is called Knitting Hill cards and there are forty different designs in selected Clinton's stores right now, so get yourself on down and see them all up close and personal.  There are quite unlike anything I have ever seen before and I am absolutely thrilled for Russell.

My thanks to Russell for giving me the opportunity to share this new collection with you.
