How on earth are we at the middle of February already? The fact that my kids have started commenting on how fast time is passing is not a good sign. I seem to remember when I was their age the days were endless.
Anyhoo, after what you may think has been a long silence from Lemon Thistle, we are back. The "Gals" have continued to work during the holiday period. Either in trying things out or reading a lot of things to gauge the trends for this year. Happy to report that it is still vintage and lace and looks like it will be that way for some time. There is still a big move towards recycling, and this will be reflected in some of the things we make. No we won't be using Granny's old jumper but you may find a bit of antique lace or re-claimed buttons.
This Gal is also trying something new, as recommended by one of her colleagues (I still have to work part-time to keep LT's headquarter roof over our head). I don't want to give the game away yet, but will post in the next week with the results. Bit excited about this one!

In the meantime here is an image of some Pears that I made.
Sunday 23rd February sees us back with Ewenique Events at Home Farm View, Chapel Level, Kirkcaldy. This will be your chance to grab a bargain as it's a Craft Clearance Sale. All stallholders at this event are selling off old stock and craft supplies (may grab a thing or two ourselves!) Would love to see you there.
Some great news to start our making year off - we will again be at Dunblane Craft Market but on a more permanent basis. We will be at all 7 planned events, starting off in April. I will post details of the event nearer the time.
It's been great to talk to you and to get back into the swing of things. Big thank you to all our New Likes on Facebook (97 and counting). Wee giveaway in the next couple of weeks so again watch this space!
Have a grand week in whatever you do.
