In print!!

I featured in the local paper this week.!! The photo was taken with me lying down so I look a little strange (I think).



I've been really busy working on a project for Homespun magazine which should feature in the May 09 issue. They had me come up with a new shoe pattern and instructions on how to make them. It's been easy designing the shoe but my instructions still need lots of work. I have no experience with pattern making at all and I never read the instructions for anything. Can't wait until I'm all finished.

Etsy finds..............

A friend of mine recently opened a cute little shop on Etsy called Studio Kurashi.
Studio Kurashi features simple, comfortable children's clothing and occasionally Japanese craft supplies too. All the items are handcrafted from designer fabrics and and quality linens.

Half length pants, suitable for boys or girls. Great for summer (or winter with tights underneath)!!

Red striped pincushions.

Small tote made yesterday using Lara Cameron fabric.
The little rabbit hook I bought from Adirondack Metal.

Room Shoes

I have a new pair of shoes up in the store (these ones are reserved for a friend). I hope to get quicker at making them so they can become a regular item at Pedrosprout.

H E L L O !

I should introduce myself ::

My name is Michelle and my passion for creating began some time ago. For instance, there's me above, quite a few years back, looking very serious indeed. I wish I still had that machine.

.....and the furry little guy is Pedro Sanchez.
Mr Sanchez is one of my best mates.
He was up on the garage scoping the garden when I snapped this pic. He looks somewhat unimpressed. I think it was early.

Coming soon .........
