Moving on - free sausage dog embroidery pattern

Late last year I mentioned a little freebie that I was including with the newsletter.  Are you signed up? 

The newsletter is usually where I mention new patterns and when I started it, I thought it would be a way for shop-type people to keep up but really  it doesn't seem to work like that.

So the plan for 2014 is that I will send a newsletter once a month (if there is something to say) and each month I am going to include a little present for you. It might be a pattern, it might be a discount code. It might be something I haven't even though of yet.

In December's newsletter I sent the link to this little embroidery pattern for some cute sausage dogs, and a little sausage dog rattle. Its free of course and you can download it lickety split from my Craftsy store.

(I just have to say again how much I love being able to offer freebies through Craftsy -my google doc days are behind me).

On the make

I am a bit at home, and a bit all-at-sea at the moment. I am trying to use this holiday time wisely and not get too distracted by Bookface, and the instawobblies and so forth. If I owe you an email, its coming.... I have been distracted.

This little man has been brewing for such a long time - and has had many many changes and tweaks. He was never quite who I thought he was until

 he got a friend.....

 and even though he is still not who I thought he was going to be, 

I am very pleased that he is who he is.

Dear Son,

Have a nice day at work love,  Make sure you dress nicely - Put on your blue suit.

Try not to get shot as you walk with your teeny tiny shield across the arena into the firing line of archers.

Make sure you wear your helmet, even when you don't wear your armour. 

Play nicely with your friends

but kill them if you have to

Look after your equipment

and make sure to practice practice, practice, practice so that you too, will soon get to gallop full speed at another man on a giant horse. Yes, he will be trying  to kill you while carrying a giant sharpened toothpick.
