WOYWW

 Welcome to our first Wednesday desk share of 2023. I hope you are all well and looking forward to all the exciting times a new year will bring.

I packed away all my Christmas things on Monday but wanted to share all the lovely handmade cards that I received this time.....


So much time and effort spent on each one.

My favourite was this lovely winter sunset over Snowdon. It was beautifully needle felted by my clever daughter Tilly Tea Dance. I think she is designing a workshop on sunsets so I may have to give it back so that she can use it as a sample!

 My task this week is to make up about 25 workshop packs for her so I will be busy in the sewing room. Hopefully we can find time for a staff meeting too, to discuss plans for 2023. I love the thought of planning a year of activities to help Tilly develop her business. Here's hoping for another brilliant year.

Have a good week.

xx Jo

Some beautiful cards there, people are so clever! That’s a beautiful sunset too, I’m sure a workshop on that will go down great guns. I’d very much like to meet up this year as well, let’s definitely do it, perhaps a spur of the moment thing?! I’m going to have Wing It tattooed somewhere, lol!

Great selection of cards, your daughter is just so talented.
Wonderful that you can help with the business, I used to love helping to sort out Peter's work plans and setting up his stalls. Sometimes in the cold and/or rain I hated it but now they are just happy memories . . . . just like these times will become.
Have a good week and take care

Oh I always love the homemade cards. I didn't send out many to our U S friends and none to overseas with postal issues I'll wait....mail is messed up here with weather and road conditions for the past few weeks. Wishing you and yours the Best for 2023

You are the perfect back room staff Miss Twiggers, and I’m excited for you to see how you can help Tilly develop her Tea advance even further. You’re right about sunset over snowdon too, isn’t it atmospheric! A very happy and healthy and lovely New Year to you. Xxx
