#1 :: Bunting Triangles ::

Lots of  sightings of bunting triangles in Blogland and Flickrville recently, which is marvellous. You can see some of the triangles in the Yarndale 2013 Flickr group, which rather excitingly has more than 80 members already. Many heartfelt thanks to all of you who are making these for me and spreading the word about it too.

I have applied for a PO Box address which should take about a week to be processed. I will of course  let you know as soon as I have the address for you to send them to.

#2 :: The Studio ::

Tracy and I have set a date for our first Open Studio Event ::

Saturday 29th June : 10am - 4pm.

For those of you who live within traveling distance of the Attic, you are welcome to come and visit us. The idea is to keep it very informal, we just want to welcome people to our studio and give you chance to have a peek at what we are up to.

Tracy has been working very hard and there will be a fabulous selection of her handmade goodies for sale.
I plan on having lots of my crochet there, but won’t be selling anything, just chatting and doing a little bit of hooky.
Bring a project along, grab a fabulous coffee and some delicious homemade cake and have fun in our colourful, creative space!

#3 :: Connievan ::

I am packing up a few bits and pieces this afternoon with a cool bag of food and we are off to spend a couple of days in our beloved caravan. The sky is blue, the sun is shining and we are all really looking forward to a weekend of outdoor relaxation. As you can see, Connievan is looking good in her new home and I can't wait to tell you all about it on Monday.

With much love to you all xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Would love to pop by to the studio on Saturday Lucy, I have bunting, how do I find you? Thanks for expanding my crochet ability from your tutorials. I love reading your blog too.

[Thea]

Where abouts are you based? I would love to find that you are near me so I could pop over...Knowing my luck, you won't be near enough! (London/ Kent). I've also got a little stack of Grannies for you- Just waiting on the PO box. x

Congrats and good luck with open house! I SO wish I could be one of those to drop in for a visit(pond is just a tad too big):( Have fun in connievan!15 triangles..so far.

love love love the bunting!!!

and...lol...everytime I see a camper (caravan for you Brits) I can't help but think of the episodes of Top Gear and the awful things they do to caravan's. :) Love that show, so glad to get BBC America.

[Anna]

Lovely news, Lucy! Your studio looks so welcoming! You know I saw a dream the other day about me and my husband visiting your town, and looking for your home or studio..and I couldn't believe we actually reached there! But I didn't meet you in my dream :) It was just a dream after all.
Have a wonderful week!
Hugs,
Anna.

I would love to come to your open studio day - can we have the address please! Xxxx

[Emily Clark]

Oh, I wish, wish, wish I could come to your open house!!! I guess crossing the great pond isn't quite considered "within traveling distance." ;) I do look forward to seeing pictures of the special day, though.
Have fun in Connievan!

[Launi]

My first little crocheted bunting experience is actually the header to my blog now. Come see if you like. :}

[Taylor]

What an exciting list!! I'm glad the triangles are going well for you and that your studio will have an open house! I wish I lived in the UK! I hope you have fun preparing for your caravan trip...looking forward to hearing about it :).

[Rachel Ridley]

Will bring you some bunting to your Open Studio. Cant wait to meet you!

Hi Lucy Have a great weekend in Connievan. We have just purchased a 21 year old "Connievan" after not having one for many years....Hubby's bad back has now taken over and we are going to pull it with our Camper for those longer trips...not sure how it will work out though!! Would love to visit your studio some day. The Norfolk Bunting is ready to send you I think you may have more bunting than you could have ever anticipated ....xxx

[Gillian]

I would love to come to your studio open day...we are in Appletreewick with friends that day, it's not so far... Just wondering if I can drag hubby and kids along too. Hmm. xx

[SabineLi]

Have a nice weekend and wonderful time!!!
I wish Central Germany was not so far away.

[Helen R]

Have a wonderful weekend in the Connievan.. Hopefully you will have lots more of that sunny sun sun that we have all been having lately. Your studio looks great.If I am in your town that weekend I would love to pop in to see it.Thanks for all your continued inspiration! Greetings from the other side of the Pennines.Helen

I hope you have lots of fun this weekend in Connievan - it's a fabulous forecast almost everywhere in the country, so you've picked a good one :)

I wish wish WISH that I lived closer so I could come and visit you for your open studio. It would be amazing to see! Unfortunately, being in the South West makes this just that bit too far!

I taught myself VERY basic crochet (I'm a knitter) inspired by wanting to do a ripple blanket like yours, about a year ago, but I've let it lapse. I'm thinking that maybe making some bunting for your yarndale might be a better (ie. more manageable) project...

Have a great weekend!

Hi, I have been reading your sweet blog for a couple of years and I love it! I don't crochet, in fact I'm not that keen on it...but your blog is just colourful and cheerful and positive. I have two boys under 3 that are very testing but reading this helps me to put positive spins on lots of days! Your family seem to work on such a relaxed and calm pace, something I crave so much! And I really enjoy the simple pleasures you show. Thank you very much!

[Chelsey]

That's great news! Good luck and have fun at your studio event. If only Australia wasn't so far...I would love to visit. Enjoy your weekend with Connievan and the family.

[Lorena]

Wonderful news!Buena suerte!
You are so brave to go to places in a Caravan... the only time I went camping was in Glastonbury Festival, it was awful. I can not put in risk my comfort. I see is very popular in the UK, I do not know why still... My afterh in law has a brand big new one, he offered ust to have it any time. h well, Thanks for the offer :P ... ermmmm
