SSTake a look around! What do you think? Do these new colours make me look good? 🙂 I’ve been wanting a redesign for ages – something to bring my blog from the depths of 2010 where it began right into the modern day of 2015. So do you like it?

I’d like to dedicate this post to my awesome designer-friend Sophie who created my new logo, background, social media icons and everything else fancy you see around here. Sophie’s a brilliant illustrator – you can find out lots more on her Pinterest, in her Etsy shop, Society 6 and Twitter  – and I highly recommend that you get in touch should you want alice in wonderland printyour own logos, prints, cards, cushions or anything else creating! She actually made us this great Alice in Wonderland typography print for our wedding, too 🙂

In celebration of my super new look I thought I’d host a little mystery giveaway for all of you lovely readers as I really do appreciate the time you take to read what I write and leave such lovely comments! I’ve put together a mystery sewing bundle filled with bits and pieces to add to your stash – you never know, there might be patterns, fabric, buttons or sweets! To enter the giveaway, just leave a comment on this post – I’ll pop your names into a hat on Valentine’s Day (2015) and draw one lucky winner then. Good luck!

Note: this competition is now closed! Thank you so much for all of your entries. The winner, chosen at random, is Hayley who has been contacted for her prize. Well done!

  34. I like it! It’s cute how your design follows all the way down on the right! I have seen some blogs that have small print and you can’t see the words. The problem isn’t alway the small print though. Your print has a clean white background and is very clear to see. Some have the small print on a background full of faint words or images and you just can’t read it! Your’s is very nice!

  46. I really do like your new “do” on the blog! The homespun feel and craftiness really suits you. How fun!
    I also really like mystery prizes, especially when they are sewing related. Well, that and jewelry, but I’ll settle for fabric, buttons and chocolates!
