And breathe...




Yes. Renegade has come to the UK. I've never been so happy! I even let out a little scream when I found out. I've been secretly wishing it would come over here, in fact it was making me miserable that America seems to have such a wide variety of wonderful craft fairs, there doesn't appear to be a lot over here. It's the first ever on October 8-9th from 11am-6pm. I have every intent of going, and even more intent on having a stall next year.

Bedroom Decor.





I moved house a few months ago, and my house is in desperate need of some love. I think i'll start on the bedroom first. I just LOVE these photo's for inspiration. I'll be starting making myself a quilt this weekend, it'll probably consist of my two favourite colours, pale pink and teal. Im lucky enough to have a versailles look-a-like dresser and adore the idea of the lovely neat bra's in the drawers like in the first picture. It's always the little things that make a room lovely for me.

In other news! - I've attempted a clay dolly who isn't going to wonderful. I don't know what's wrong with me, I just can't stick to one craft, I have to start and try something new before i've even finished what i'm doing. It's so irritating. But i was really inspired by the black apple her blog is so lovely and filled with lovely-ness, her ability to create as much as she does has really pushed me in the right direction to get my bum in gear. My shop will exist by the end of the year, I promise myself it will. I'm still sticking with the name Quilted Chivalry, i'm not sure why I like it so much, or even where I got it from.

I'm also going to learn photoshop as soon as possible, to help out with banners/images ect. As I should, SHOULD (fingers crossed) be getting my camera this weekend, I've been trying to get one on credit but can't, so i'll be going in store to sort something out. I can't wait!


Inspiration Monday.

I've always been crazy for Chanel haute couture, but when browsing for crochet flower ideas I stumbled across these glor...
