Local treasures

Oopahtot softie in pale pink corduroy



I've just made my first treasury list on Etsy.  Beautiful things are being made in Canberra Australia and here are just a few.

The one thing I can't do




...in terms of craft that is!  Why is it I can turn my hand to any craft but crochet?  I just can't do it after years of trying over and over I have given up.  And then I find this most awesome pattern.  Gah!!!

Upload complete!




Teapot and Snail has gone digital!  All patterns are now available for instant digital download on Etsy.  That means if you have a sudden urge to sew something new in the middle of the night, you can!

As soon as you have clicked Add to Cart and your payment has gone through, Etsy gives you a button to click.  You can get your pattern instructions and pieces to print out right then and there.  It's going to be great for my overseas customers (no more waiting for the Aussie working day to start) and for anyone who's been caught out and remembered a birthday the night before!
