Our new framer is having her own exhibition

Dionne    Feel good stuff, Up coming events, What's New     arthead, bob millis, sonja millis

We are always looking for new framers as our customers come from a large geographic area.  Up until now we only had them on the coast side of the Highlands.  Through our customers we heard about Arthead in Goulburn, just as I was planning when I could fit in a trip down the highway with the munchkin supervised by Grandma, Arthead opened up a new shop front in Moss Vale.  Yay!

We have had a number of models stitched there in the last 3 months and Sonja and her team provide a consistently excellent finish to our models.  It is great that there is someone just down the road.  Sonja and her husband are also having their own exhibition this weekend so you can see what they get up to when not busy working at their 2 stores.

Bowral and District Art Society are hosting an exhibition of Bob and Sonja Mills works this week from the 7th to the 11th of July, so it is worth going along this weekend, before you miss out.

Sonja and Bob Millis exhibition July 7th-11th. Just the thing for a cold blustery weekend in the Highlands. Don't miss out!

Baby Booties to die for

Dionne    Book of the Month, Knitting and Crochet, What's New     baby booties, book of the month, caroline de hugo, made in france

Been quite a while since I had a fab new book to squeal about and now it seems I am spoilt for choice!  Made in France: Baby Booties was one of the new arrivals in store last month, and I love it.  I can even get past the fact that a ply is not given on any page or pattern.  There is a tension square in either stocking stitch or garter stitch and needle sizes are given.   Because of this I would be loathe to recommend the book for a beginner knitter, you would need a little confidence.

There are wonderful diagrams and instructions for techniques at the front and the 18 designs have the beautiful photography and clear instructions we have come to expect from the Made in France crowd.

It could just be because I am clucky but I love the Roman Sandals, little chubby feet in them … you just want to eat them.  I also love the Magic Moccasins, so simple, with 6 variations.  That is nearly one for every day of the week.

This dear little book full of delicious little people with smartly decorated feet can be yours for just $25.00 and is available now online or in store.
