This week I have been making cushions, garlands and other pretties out of vintage and hand screen printed fabrics, doilies and beautiful ribbon ready for the launch of the As petals fall shop in December…
My most recent batch of snail mail was craft themed, inspired by a vintage handicrafts book I found. I put together 7 packages for my mail art friends all including cuttings from the book, fabric swatches, a doilie, ribbon, buttons and some personal touches;

A holiday, an illness and a bout of creative block has meant it’s been a while, if you’ve missed me then I’m sorry… I have emerged from my cave to greet a wonderfully blustery Autumn and I am ready for new inspirations and creations. An exciting bit of news is that I am starting a textile design venture with my wonderful and very talented Mum, we will be producing some beautiful handmade original pieces so watch this space.
Love and petals,
Katie
