mostly when i sit down to write a post i know exactly what i'm going to write, today i'm just gonna 'wing it' as the young people say and see how it goes...
i know you've already seen this quilt so you can skip this bit if you want. at the dalriada festival last month there were these lovely, old, vintage-y tractors and i just knew i wanted to do a photo-shoot with some of my quilts. i always think that my photos aren't good enough and like always fret over them to make them just 'perfect' and if i do say so myself i rather like these photos (above) do you worry/stress over the photos you're going to post on your blog/internet??
i'm still doing craft fairs, and i really love them, it really is true all crafters are just the nicest people. this is my stall at the fine and dandy market, it's a monthly market in the crescent arts centre, it's brilliant really ecletic and the atmosphere is just 'buzzing' (you can see me taking this picture in the picture haha)
i've been on a cushion making kick lately, there are just so many ideas and designs for cushions, i've really made loads and have hardly posted any here cause i think you'll get bored looking at photos and photos and photos of cushions.
this might be my favourite cushion mr. badger i just love his little fat tummy and the contrast with the tweed, oh yea that's another thing i have fallen in love with tweed fabric and i can't seem to find it anywhere it's as elusive as linen!
hmm i think my unplanned-ness sorta worked in a big jumble type of way. what does everybody else do, do you plan out what you're going to write? or do you just 'wing it'?

ReplyDeleteThe quilt on a tractor is a perfect photo setting and those cushions are just gorgeous. Well done on all the craft fairs. I'm more of a wing-it blogger but I'm hoping to be a bit more planned....!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt all looks amazing to me - keep up the aweaome pretty work xxx
ReplyDeleteLove your quilt/tractor photos! Your badger cushion is just fantastic!
ReplyDeleteYour cushions are gorgeous, did you ever see my badger cushion before it was sold? You've made me want to make some more again!
ReplyDeletegreat cushions and I love that tweed fabric too!
ReplyDeleteYour badger pillow is adorable! I love the texture that the quilting adds.
ReplyDeletePfft my camera is my phone! I don't blog and one of the things holding me back is knowing that my photos are generally not publication standard.
