I'm back on Sewing Street with the very wonderful Stuart Hillard

I have some new exciting products launching which work perfectly with some of Stuart's patterns....👀👀

I have other new products too and products that sold out really fast last time so make sure to tune in at 10am 🥰

I would love to start doing some sewing classes next year in Barnsley?

Who would be interested? Bring your own projects, learn to sew, dressmaking, bag making, homewares, toys.

Would you book? Would be some daytime during the week and some on a weekend.

Long post alert!!!

Just incase anyone panics before reading. I'm not going anywhere don't worry ❤️

Just wanted to let you know where I am and how I'm feeling. You're all like friends to me so felt right to share!

I have plans for the business but I can't always act on them right away like I once could.

It also feels like I'm fighting constant battles with one thing and another at the moment too! 🙄🙄

Every bit of time I now spend on the business is very precious, if I feel like I've not spent it wisely, I feel bad for Mabel who I could have been spending more time with.

I'm also hoping to get a proper monthly schedule together for live sewing and shopping on a Thursdays. But today had been so busy I haven't got round to prepping!!

Anyway. That's all from me

Lots of love

Emily

Anyone local to Barnsley that might want this singer sewing machine that comes in a cabinet.

It's a lovely piece of furniture but I don't have room for it anymore !

It all folds down into the cabinet. We don't think the machine itself is working, we hoped to get it up and running but just don't have the time

Can potentially deliver if local and you don't think it would fit in your car!

£30

So excited to share that I'll be doing some Mamma sew sessions at Calm Babies in Birdwell.

Since becoming a mum last November Calm Babies has been such a special place for me and Mabel and I know my friend Heather and her little girl will say the same. We have loved classes! I think me and Heather have taken the girls to pretty much every class on offer 😂

So it feels very full circle to be able to offer classes there for mums who want to sew their own keepsakes.

No experience necessary so if you're in Barnsley get booked on. ❤️

Oooops admin error booking for Mama Stitch didnt go on apppolgies.

But here they are ready to book.

£25 make you own memeory cushion just need to bring those sewing fingers and some baby clothes.

No previous experince needed.
