Thanks very much to Allie who helped me out at the Spring Fair on Wednesday…
We went to see Vampire Weekend (a very popular New York indie band who embrace African popular culture) at Birmingham O2 Academy on Wednesday night - who were great - but i was so very tired after standing up all day at the show!!
We set up the show on Saturday in record time and then wizzed off to have some fun and a chinese in Dunton Bassett. The show started on Sunday and I spent the day with Katie who VERY kindly helped me, and made some delicious alternative flapjacks which she likes to call cup jacks (flapjacks in the shape of cupcakes!) - very tasty indeed!
Is this the biggest onion in the world???? it’s homegrown by one of my neighbours and i’m not entirely sure what do do with it!!
we got up v. early on sunday morning to go on a walk as the sun was rising = lots of fun, v. cold (-4.5) and saw LOTS of wildlife too!
We have a BRAND new No. 1 best seller! It’s the wonderful Indian runner ducks which are a new design in the Farm animals range - which has gone down a storm!
(this design says: I like you the best of anyone in the whole world)
This is one of my brand new designs for the Farm animals range - it’s a wonderful belted galloway cow (which I often call humbugs!)..
(he’s saying ‘I am just myself’...)
On Tuesday I had the very great opportunity to go sleging with a herd of these wonderful cows…
Top Drawer is very soon now - it’s open from the 17th - 19th January at Earl’s Court....and we’ll be there on Stand A5 with lots of new designs for greetings cards and wrap - and hope to see you there too!
