Happy New Year! Hope 2013 has started off on the right foot! So, it’s back to work, hats, blogging…and everything for me! I’m currently finishing off a miniature top hat for a lady’s wedding. She wanted something really simple, so the trimming is just tulle netting layered up (her dress has a a tulle petticoat [...]

It’s been so warm here this autumn that it’s hard to believe it’s already December! And we had snow this morning! So excited! I started my Christmas shopping a few weeks ago, but I’m still on the hunt for the last few presents. Don’t forget if you want to purchase a hat from either Chalkie’s [...]

Sorry I haven’t written anything recently, I’ve been really tired out from work and a horrible cold (feeling better for having napped a lot today…). But my new store is up and open on Etsy : Pedal In Style! So go check it out! As I previously said, it’s a store just for my bike [...]

Autumn is here and I’m back to my hats! I’ve decided to open up a second store on Etsy (my first one being Chalkie’s Bazaar) just for my cycling caps! So, at the moment I’m busy sewing up the first lot of caps to put up for sale. It’s not been easy going back to [...]

So, finally managed to take some photos of my current work! It’s so hard dashing around during my lunch break when the sun is out to get a few shots! I hate it when it gets dark so early, drives me mad! Anyway, I’ve started off the year with a few small items (I’ve got [...]

Just to show you quickly these cycling caps that I made this week, special Devonshire (inEngland) cycling caps! Had fun making them! I’ll be going away on vacation soon (so yes, you can expect to have loads of blog posts  relating to my travels at the end of the month!), so I won’t be blogging [...]

Voici quelques photos de mes casquettes de cyclisme en action!

This week I’ve been making a bunch of cycling caps for a polo bike team (http://saucylobstarz.wordpress.com). What do you think of them? Cette semaine, j’étais occupée à fabriquer quelques casquettes de cyclisme pour une équipe de polo (http://saucylobstarz.wordpress.com). Vous en pensez quoi?

At the moment I’m working on some cycling caps for some polo bike players. I’ve made the first batch of prototypes for them to try on but I’m not quite satisfied with the result so far. Being a non-cycle cap wearer it’s hard to judge how the hat should exactly be on the head. Will [...]
