Tuesday, November 16th, 2010

We have two new fabulous Amy Butler Patterns in store.

Oval Patchy Pillows


&

Reversible Sunday Sling

Let the renovations begin

Saturday, November 13th, 2010

Next week the demolition is starting on the back of the shop.
Replacing the old classroom with a lovely new bright work space,
and also building a new place for me to live.

I am very excited and can’t wait to take a sledge hammer to the place.

So I thought I had better do some before shots – I always forget and then it’s too late.




Bye bye dark room, small cramped kitchen and low benches.


Bye to wood paneling and leaky roofs.


I don’t think it will take much to knock down – look at the lean on the roof!!!!


Can’t wait!!!!!!
