NEW: Mother's Day Bundle
Looking for a way to spoil your mum this Mother's Day? Our Mother's Day bundle gives you 30% off three beautiful beginner kits, including our super popular stitch sampler!
You can learn to embroider with your mom or just keep them all to yourself.
Introducing...
We have just launched a new beginner Pot Plant Stitch Sampler kit! This pattern is a fantastic way to learn embroidery, especially if you love a botanical vibe!
The kit includes all the supplies you need, plus access to an epic step-by-step video experience. So you can be confident that even if you're totally new, I'll help you learn embroidery (and have a lot of fun along the way)!
If you want to dive in with our awesome kit, you can grab yours here.
Here's a blast from the past, these DIY (no-sew) Leather Pouches which I dreamed up a few years ago. Wouldn't they make a lovely Mother's Day gift? Leather is a special material to work with because it instantly adds a touch of quality and natural beauty to any project.
Your mum is going to love this one or you might just want to make it for yourself!
Our wonderful new member Lindsey has finished her Bunny Blooms pattern, and doesn't it just look fab? π
She says, "I fiiiiinally finished my first!!! I never finish projects so I'm really proud of myself!"
We are so glad that she is proud of herself and we are so in love with what she's accomplished! πΈ❤️
What's inspiring me on the creative front...
Watercolour is a beautiful medium but if anyone has tried it, they know that it takes a lot of skill! @polina.bright is a watercolour artist based in Sydney, who creates the most stunning art. Her favourite subjects are beautiful women, florals, and animals, painted in her signature style. Check out more of her incredible art on her Insta page.

Lauren had a chuckle watching this video, and she thought you crafty people would enjoy it too, especially if you've been watching the Avatar TV series! Do you have an avahooker in your life? π
In our world...
We're into the second week of school hols here in NZ. So days continue to be filled with play dates, holiday programmes, working from home, and juggling all the things.
This week we've got the one-year anniversary of when Sue passed (Matt and Amy's mum). It's just unbelievable a whole year has gone by without her. We will be spending time together on the day, remember what an amazing person she was. She was always the life of the party, so I'm sure there will be lots of reminiscing funny memories too.
On the work front (feels a bit weird moving straight onto that, but here we are), we're thrilled to release our second beginner stitch sampler kit. This one had cute wee pot plants in the mix and is an epic way to learn or refresh your embroidery skills.
Have a great week, everyone!

words to live by
Both abundance and lack [of abundance] exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend … when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present—love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us [happiness]—the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth. -Sarah Ban Breathnach
