Design, aeropilates and my number one supporter!

Next week I am doing nothing else but designing and Pilates !
I Have been having a wonderful time drawing so now these sketches need to be translated into patterns for my lovely sewists and stockists!
My studio is now half tidied but hey it's tidy enough to work in! I had planned to have it ultra tidy by now but like many of you I succumbed to the flu and a chest infection. If you did get it I can only hope that you are feeling a lot better by now.
I am also busy preparing my lovely shop on folksy. Times are super busy but super exciting!
Got to get a wedding organised too!!!!'
In the meantime I have popped a gorj pic of my number one supporter in this post. To quote a fave song ,"without you I'm nothing" xxx I couldn't do Amy if this without my darling man.
Here's wishing you have a wonderfully happy crafting weekend

Ps as well as drawing ideas I take pics of inspiring things I see. Loving the floor I spotted whilst away recently x

Win win win!!!!!! Can you answer this question???

A belated Happy 2013 to all my Rubynistas out there. Hope the festive season was fab and that you are back in to the swing of crafting!
We have had the flu in our house and so the mojo disappeared for a few days. It's now back and raring to go so I've got some busy weeks ahead pattern writing! It's a really exciting way to start the new year for me.
This will be my first full year doing my own thing. I already feel happier than I have been in years. If you are dithering about whether to go it alone be brave and do it!
I asked you in the blog title if you could solve the answer to a question I've got...........
Why could it be said that people who sew are bad tempered?
If you've got a brilliant answer please comment below or tweet or even Facebook me the answer. The most imaginative and witty one will be sent a stitch ripper and a bag of fabric scraps for you to get creative with in 2013.
Can't wait to hear from you!
Keep your eyes peeled for the new patterns coming out very soon.....
Wishing you a really creative 2013
