I just found such a wonderfully generous description of silver nutmeg & a golden pear designs work on the handmade hobart blog- thanks SO much ladies - 
(I am busy making and creating for this weekend- yah cant wait- but I have stopped for some lunch!!)- 

Indy will be so thrilled when i show her after school!!- Yes she truly is Boss and will be there supervising my efforts on Sunday as she has previously booked herself out for Saturday??? 
I know the cheek- really she will be off playing soccer representing her school in the under 9's mixed side- good luck sacred heart gold!!!

Handmade Hobart is such a fabulous market and one of my favorites for sure!!
Be sure to pop by over the weekend; the talent and insanely awesome, unique, bespoke items that local creators are putting out on their tables for sale never ceases to amaze and inspire me!!!

This Saturday and Sunday 15th & 16Th both days 10am until 3pm- 
St Peter's Hall corner Harrington and Brisbane streets.  Do stop by and say hello!!

Some of the kind words from handmade hobart ladies:

"A favourite of ours here at handmadehobart is the work of Courtney (and her gorgeous 'boss' Indy) from Silver Nutmeg and a Golden Pear and we're really excited to have them back with us this weekend.





Combining quality fabrics (vintage and contemporary designer), with an amazing eye for colour and detail, these are kids clothes unlike any you'll see elsewhere.
They're bright, they're bold and above all they're practical (a real plus for mums) and fun (which is what the kids love).
Combine this with a wondeful collection of whimsical softies and some great accessories for ladies and we're sure that this is a stall you'll want to spend some time at.
Rumour has it that Silver Nutmeg is launching their new boys' winter range this weekend too."

And details on that boys range....well you may just have to come along on the weekend and check it out for yourself ;) or actually I think I will post some details up later today or tomorrow- see how I go for time- now back to the sewing machine!!

happy mothers day mum....to all mums everywhere- it's a tough gig at times xo

what a wonderful day I had- I was very spoilt with lovely pressies- including some handmade ones- yah!!

I had the most delicious brekkie cooked and served to me- had to be at the table I have just never really been able to do the brekkie in bed thing even when I am unwell- weird I know?
Then we went to footy and Oskar's team won a huge 84 to 42!!

Then home for lunch and a visit from my eldest yah!! AND I know it's really corny BUT I must say the best pressies all day were the HUGE hugs I got from my kiddies even my 17 year old!! Thanks so much guys!!

Then I got busy with all my helpers to assist- hehe a mum knows when she can ask that little bit extra of everyone- carting boxes down stairs to my new sewing room- pics to come is just tables and massive towers of plastic storage containers at the moment- BUT I am really looking forward to sorting my fabrics back out into colour stacks again.

Some more pics below- kids enjoying brekkie also- thanks to their dad!! xx
And Oskar's room upstairs again- half finished mixed bed sheets and all- a long story but we will just be glad to see him sleeping happily again- he had taken to camping out on the couches upstairs since his big brother has been gone from downstairs.





Ange- I think I will try again with this one so will get a "better" looking one made up in next day or 2 I promise!!!


What did everyone else do today?
Enjoy the week xoxo
