Hugs ‘n Kisses Christmas Break

I would like to sincerely thank all of our customers, supporters and friends in the industry for a wonderful, sometimes challenging, but always interesting year.

I thankyou for your loyalty, your support, your passion and your friendship. Being able to design and stitch knowing you are all there with me and we are enjoying the same passion keeps me going.

At times in this industry things can be very challenging – I know it all looks lovely, friendly and what more could a girl ask for – working in her passion… I often think about giving up and joining the circus when things happen that make me sad or upset but your friendship and inspiration reminds me of my reason for doing this. I do my best to do what I do with ethics, grace and honesty, for the best of everyone. My inspiration will never fade even if my energy does.

I encourage you to put all of your energy into positive things – make a difference, be nice, be caring and use your passion for the good of all. There is too much negativity in our world this week- we can change that through stitching if only in our little place in the world.

We may have many changes afoot in 2015 as we continue to learn together, listen to your feedback, make planned or unplanned changes in direction and keep making lovely things.

Our office will be closed from close of business tomorrow (18th Dec) reopening on Monday 12th January. Orders can be placed online during this period and will be processed in order on our return. If you need it urgently please note in the comments.

We look forward to 2015 with renewed energy and vigour and all things positive.

I send wishes that your Festive season is full of happy family memories and wonderful times shared.

Now go forth and eat pudding, chocolate or anything that gives you great pleasure – worry about the calories in the new year!

see you then.

hugs for today

Helen
