Well this week is just running away from me 🏃‍♂️ I’ve been chained to my desk stitching a huge selection of pins and just looked up now to notice the sun is out 😎😎😎 brb I’m going to get a Fab!

Pheeeew It’s been a busy ole week full of pins, pins and more pins!! Hope you all have a fab weekend whatever you’re doing...my plans are fairly simple 🛋🥂

I’ve just finished a really exciting commission I wanted to share with you! When a lovely customer contacted me about making a pin inspired by the carpet from the movie ‘The Shining’ I said hell to the yes!! I love making pieces that are personal and a little different 😍 if you have a specific idea/pattern you would like to commission as an embroidered pin then just email me and we can have a chat 🤓

I can’t believe it’s the final day of the #marchmeetthemaker challenge! Thank you so much to everyone who followed along ❤️ Day 31 • Product in use/in the wild 🐆
In celebration of such a gorgeous day and finally being able to dust off the ole denim jacket, I took this cute floral pin out for a spin 🌸 I absolutely love seeing pics of my pins in use and the different ways you can style them!

Day 29 #marchmeetthemaker
Most difficult to make
I would describe the pins as more fiddly to make than difficult but I tell ya what is difficult? Metallic embroidery thread!!! I have a serious love/hate relationship with it because on one hand I want the sparkly glitteryness but on the other hand it snags, breaks and fray’s aaall the time! Maybe I’m missing a metallic thread hack 😂
