Hey there, ABOTAT fans! It's been a while!
So, what have I been up to since my last post? Well, sadly, my workshop in the Ely Street Antiques Centre Courtyard is no more. It was glorious while it lasted, but it just wasn't meant to be. This time... Perhaps I'll be back again one day, fingers crossed!
I'm still making, mending and tinkering though! Most recently, I finally got around to a bit of mending of my own (one's own to-do piles are always the last to get done). A hoodie that's in perfect condition, except that the cuffs had frayed. A perfect opportunity to try out a bit of visible mending I hadn't had a crack at before. I'm pretty happy with the results to be honest. I love the colours and now my hoodie has a great new feature!
Also, any of you lovely folks who were in town for the Bard's birthday bash might have seen my marvellous husband, and proprietor of CadabrArt Gallery, Graham dressed for the occasion in a very subtle Tudor bonnet and shoulder cape of my construction. Again, I love how these came out, and Gray had a great (albeit rather warm) time swishing about looking wonderful 😁
So, if there's anything you need mending, altering, or making then give me a shout! And if not, then enjoy your long weekend x
