Somehow spring is on the doorstep and I hardly noticed the time passing. I would dearly love to go and lounge in a flower meadow, but alas this is not a picture of me living out my heart's desire, just a still from my favourite film that accompanies me while I work - any such dreams will have to stay firmly in my head for the time being. The promising thoughts of books and baking and walks and all those things I hoped to do when I cut my hours in the office have fallen hopelessly by the wayside as something else has gotten in the way...
But is is something brilliant. Whenever the blog goes quiet for a while like it has over the past month it is fairly safe to assume there is something big happening behind the scenes. I'm afraid I am not able to tell you very much (well anything really) about it yet, but trust me when I say that it is incredibly exciting - another dream come true; another box on the way to being ticked; another mountain of work to get through - and that it will be absolutely worth the wait! To me it is even more exciting than the last Very Big Thing, by quite a margin in fact, so that might give you a small idea of just how giddy I am feeling about it. Bring. It. On.
Aside from that, you may have noticed that things are looking a bit different around here - I was running out of space with the old website and there were lots of things I couldn't do with it, so with the help of an awesome template from here I have been building myself a new one. It looks pretty basic at the moment and there is still rather a lot to do because the exciting thing happened before I could finish it, but hopefully it is a little easier to find what you are looking for with all of the links for the shop and blog in once place. I plan to prettify it and add some video tutorials and other things as soon as I can find the time, but I need to finish the new kits first so it will remain a work in progress for now.
Also, I have been having some irritating trouble with comments, so if you have left one and it hasn't shown up I am very sorry but they have not been working properly. I think they are fixed again now though so please do say hello!
There are new kits on the horizon, and I still have the last of the new designs to share with you so pop back soon :)

Heya,
I made two of your keys and blogged about them. Having dithered on the edge of it for so long, I have you to thank for tipping me into the world of cross stitch.
Also, do you have a flickr pool to which people can add their photos of your cross stitch designs? If so, please send a link as I'd love to add mine too!
Take care of you and keep up the good work.

They look great! Thanks for letting me know. I don't have a Flickr group but you can always post things to my Facebook page - I've shared a link to your blog post there so everybody can see your handiwork!
