The organic collection...

Hello my dears... :)
I am in full production mode this week and despite the fact that I've been crocheting like a maniac for a few weeks I finally feel like I'm starting to get a collection organised for the Selvedge craft fair. Things are starting to come together and instead of randomly working on half a dozen different ideas at once I'm focusing on getting some pieces properly finished. The first of which is those organic pot holders I worked on last week, I've expanded the collection to include a yummy pink yarn and some pretty lacy designs. Yesterday I happily spent an hour or so embroidering their wee signature tags and putting together the swing tags. Then today we got a great opportunity for a wee photography session, Edinburgh has been so sunny and the light in my wee studio was just perfect... :)

I'm really loving this new lacy design, they are really fun to crochet and I'm already planning on adding a few to my original (non-organic) collection. I'm thinking some pretty spring pastels would look great, maybe inspired by this sorbet colour palette, oh but definitely this lovely floral one... :)

  5. Emma, I've got a feeling that these designs of yours are going to be tremendously popular at that Fair.

    Please do rest your fingers every so often, but ... keep on crocheting! xo

  6. Emma, what I love most about your work is how peaceful it makes me feel when I look at it. Maybe that sounds a bit odd...but I can just imagine that no matter how stressed you might be to finish up before the weekend....that you're truly loving what you do, and finding contentment in your work. To me, that is the greatest reward of being self employed. Kudos dearie, and all my best for a lovely show. :)
