Cuddly Christmas trees…

COVID finally got me 🤕😞 I tested positive on Sunday and have been feeling awful, but today is definitely better and I managed to get out in my workshop to make a big drum lampshade, with stitched trim.
Lots of bespoke lampshades neatly wrapped and ready for collection 😁

Busy week making this week and next, trying to space it out though as it's too hot in my workshop, especially in the afternoons 🌞That's okay though, Rosie and I have been home alone so we've had some nice quiet time indoors too... She's becoming exceedingly good company 🥰🐶🥰
A couple of weeks ago I ran a lampshade workshop @toast_marlow
