Greetings all,
Nothing like a magazine photo shoot deadline with less than 36 hours to produce a variety of handmade goodies & post interstate, to keep you up at night. Here is a little peek at what was in the 'sack' of products which i offerred up to meet different parts of the brief . . .
bohemian gypsy colourful children's clothing theme
red, white & pink nursery decor, i like a bit of detail on a cushion
& accessories like toys . . . here piggie piggie - remember the 1940's vintage softie from the National Museum a few posts back, this was perfect inspiration!!
bright rainbow baby clothes - this was one of 5 i offered
& this was me at the sewing machine well past midnight . . .
so i'd wake up to this in the morning. It was so windy outside when i tried to shoot this quilt, i had to peg it to the fence. Look at that gorgeous blue sky!!
Also tossed in some hair accessories, pencil rolls, bunting flags & tutus, wish me luck something gets in the magazine.
So now i can rest up & get some sleep, as i work on more readymade products for an amazing business venture & also build up my handmade section in my shop again.
We spent our afternoon poolside & had the entire complex to ourselves for much of the gusty afternoon. I got in 20 laps before the children were iceblocks & wanted to go home to warm showers. For once they were asking me if we could leave the pool. Then i came home to some super exciting emails & orders, some days are just extra tops!! Love Posie

You will like the pool here - has hot showers and liquid soap (if I am feeling extra lazy I will give both kids a shower and into clean clthes before we head home - something to lok foward too)
