News from the Mad House....

Soooooo it seems as though you all got the very big hint due to my late posting on here and Our Ben's late night newsletter, and so it was a mad dash 7am start at the studio to unpack these...

 They actually arrived last week but we are so snowed under we couldn't find the time to unpack them, lol.
They had to be quickly sorted and priced ready for the shop.


Yup its Tim Holtz and Wendy Vecchi's latest CHA release of stamps.

 and Yes as you can see, they are physically HERE in our studio, not just on pre order.!!

This was this mornin after we picked a ton of mailorder

And also Wendy's Art parts

As I was saying that was the piles earlier today...you should see them ow..trashed..demolished..ransacked...
We have parcels and bags all over, many trips to the Post Office, sore fingers from pretty parcel wrapping.!!
Many of Tim's are sold out or on limited remaining. Unfrikkinbeleivable...

Speaking of Tim, himself, the Gorgeous Mario and the Lovely Alain all arrived at mine late afternoon, just in time for my kids class.. They amazed Tim as they showed him some of their work, especially things made with his products and he was genuinly excited as they explained their techniques to him.
 Many of the kids were missing as some started their half term early, but this enabled us to concentrate on the remaining few finishing pillows.

And heres the result

 How fabulous sre they then. The designs were sourced, hand drawn, paper pieced and then felt pieced. They hand stitched the design together, and the stitched it on to the gingham And then the pillow was made from scratch and sewn on the machine.. Stuffed with batting, they make a gorgeous cuddler. Well done girls.

Now you all know the old saying

"when in Rome" !

well hears my version

"when ooooop North" and all that palaver.

Thought I would treat the lads to some traditional Yorkshire Fayre

Ooooh hes not at all convinced at the mo.

oh, not quite sure what  to think.

So what Yorkshire delicacy di I rock up with

 
Yup its "one of each" x 4, with mushy peas and not forgetting the scraps.!!

Ooooh think he loves them...

As did Mario

and Alain

Yayy the Northern delicacy was a massive hit with one and all.

And then into the studio to rope in the class ladies to help make samples for next Mondays TSV on QVC..

Heres Bezzie, trying not to burn anything..

And not quite too surewho this is...!!!!

See you tomorrow for more studio reveals..!!!

Enjoy,
