Sewing journal...

 
Look what landed on my doormat this morning!
 
If you're an avid sewer/crafter and you love to write and sketch you're going to love this. This wire spiral bound journal is Rachel Goodchild's latest addition to her gorgeous online collection.

 
It has 70 pages (140 sides) of blank paper in a 100gsm weight, with an added lined separate sheet. and is 160mm x 220mm, so its a perfect size to just pop in your bag. The journal is printed on FSC recycled paper and comes wrapped in a cellophane bag.

 
And check this out!!! The page marker is a tape measure!!!!! *Squeals*
Now you cant tell me you don't just love, love, love it?

 
I love dressmaking and sewing and this journal is right up my street.

 
The drawings are so exquisite, from the pattern pieces to the needle and thread detailing.

 
I especially love the bobbin of thread on the back page.

 
At £8.00 this journal I think is a steal, and I cant wait to get my first list written down. If you would like to own one of these fab journals you can get your crafty mitts on one
 
here.
 
They'd make a fab stocking filler for Christmas too. I have a feeling I'll be adding a few more to my Christmas list.

Saw me finish a very special order...I love these little fella's especially these 50!

 
I also became the proud owner of a Kenwood Mixer, I've wanted one since I was a little girl, now I have one the same as my Mam :) cupcakes!!!!!!

 
I had a manic 2 days cutting out lots of new items, most will be for the Christmas fairs I will be doing in December.

 
Which then made my shiny new studio look like this :( now it looks like my space lol

 
And I had a little fun with some felt in a patriotic theme.
