LONDON CALLING

Well after all the storms last week (we went from the gale force winds knocking hell out of the greenhouse, trees and roof of HQ to torrential rain and the farden and fields under 6 inches of water) it looks like the weather has calmed down just a tad, enough to let us get out and try to repair damage. The most important thing to fix was the roof on HQ and we managed to get that fixed just before the torrential rain.

The big news is that Dream Acres will be attending the Country Living Fair in London on 12-16th March at the Design Centre in Islington. It is a really exciting prospect but nerve wracking at the same time. As you can imagine l am now knee deep in sewing trying to get stock ready to take, and full of worry that l am doing the right thing, taking the right stuff etc. I am a worrier at the best of times, give me something like this and l go into overdrive. So much for there being no real rush to get my new products out there, now l am snipping like mad to get my new patterns cut and and piling up the 'to be sewn' stuff so that l can work on things in blocks of time. This is when a few friendly elves would come in very handy.

I promise l will take some photos and post them here later in the week. Back to the scissors and sewing machine..............
