Whistle stop blog post, as I am up to my neck in *stuff*. My polar bear pattern in 'Mollie Makes Weddings' - on Amazon UK here and Amazon USA here.
My kitten pattern in the latest issue (37) of 'Mollie Makes'. Available as a 'real' magazine here or as a digital download here from iTunes only.
Off to Cinderhill Farm soon to do the first workshop of the year on March 8th - there are two places left, if anyone fancies it, details are here . I can count on one hand the amount of times I've been anywhere since November last year, so I am very much looking forward to my adventure. Not to mention seeing my dear friends, meeting my workshop students and cooing over the newborn lambs.
I'll also be launching my first kits, 'Slinky Fox' at the workshops. It's been a long process, but I will soon be bringing out kits on a regular basis. I will return with photos of lambs. And chickens. and more pigs. And goats.

Truly scrumptious, they really are. Delightful!
They are so sweet and how clever of you to put all those ideas together and come up with a new toy.
My three year old granddaughter had "Mrs Mouse`s Cupcakes" for her birthday this week. She loves the book and wants to hear the story again and again!
As ever, the simplicity belies their clever and very effective design.
Oooooooeeee!!! These are "MEOWWWVOLUS"!!!! Purely PRRRRRfect!!!! Heee

mmmm Sherbert Lemons, love them.
The kittens are great I love the idea of sweets and felting names.
Just as well your favourite sweets are sherbert lemons - you might have had a bit of a time designing someting based on my favourites .... midget gems!!
Such a simple design Gretel but all the little touches are so sweet, the little heart, stitching around the tummy, the collar and little 'flower' by the ear. Just gorgeous
A shape which you have tinkered with over the years in various forms and "Sherbert Lemon" sounds and looks yummy.........
A sunny morning here, looking out one window it's blue sky and out the, other grey clouds and threatening........typical SPring weather.

Congrats on getting your kitties in the catalogue, they have a Japanese simplicity too them. I adore the pink one on the card.

Sherbet Lemons, oh my, can you still buy them?
What dear little kittens. I hope you make sure that they each go to a good home.
Now here's a funny thing, Gretel. This post of yours has led my memory back many decades...6 of them for the technically inclined, to a time when I was a little girl longing for a kitten.
I used to clip pictures of kittens out of magazines and concentrate and concentrate on those pictures, willing them to actually come alive, giving me a lovely little kitten.
Well. No kitten sprung from those clipped out pictures in my scrapbook. I learned to read, took up with words and lessened my sole obsession with pictures, and actually fell in love with a beautiful beagle puppy...my very first pet.
Still never had a kitten or cat for a pet. This in now way keeps me from greatly admiring your lovely feline creations. xo
When I first saw your new kitty creations I thought that they looked Japanese inspired, maybe you took in the influence from your lovely old dolls without knowing it?
They are as sweet as the confections they are named after. Maybe we will see them in book form one day?
So simple and oh so sweet-little lemony kitties! ♥
Purrrrfect! (Sorry!) As you say - I can see your influences but your kitties are definately from the "Middle of Nowhere". x Jo
Little lemon colored wobbly-headed kittens, what a sweet treat they are! I love the way you are able to express so much personality using simple forms. It is not an easy thing to do. But these are just charming.
