Welcome, friends! I'm Amy aka Midge. I'm a 27 year old textile artist from Bristol, UK. This is a blog about my life, the things I love and my journey as a small business owner.

Happy Friday! 🎉 I'm back on the punch needle today and hoping to add some lovely new things to the shop soon. Who else is addicted to punching?! 💜

As promised, these two upcycled ukulele pillows are now available in the shop ✌ . These were cut from a vintage shirt and are totally unique! One is backed with mustard corduroy and the other is a lovely blue 🎸 . Last time I made some of these they sold pretty quick, so I may try to squeeze a couple more out of the remaining fabric! ✂️

The struggle to take product photos in January is real 🙈 Looking forward to sunshine and longer days 🌻 . These ukulele pillows will hopefully be listed on Etsy this week! You may remember I made some of these a couple of years ago with this same animal print fabric, which was originally a really awesome vintage shirt 🐆 Well I recently discovered the remnants of it and decided to make a few more! . I forgot how much I love repurposing unwanted clothes and turning them into cushions, so I really want to focus on making loads more upcycled products this year ✌

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year on this beautiful day! 🌞 I hope you all had the most wonderful Christmas. It's been so refreshing to take a step back and enjoy some time off. I plan to make the most of this last day of relaxation before jumping into 2019 with new goals and fresh ideas ✌🤓

My #topnine for 2018! Thank you all for your continued support this year. It seems cats have remained a firm favourite! 🐱🐈 . I'm looking forward to working on lots of new things in 2019 and experimenting with more weaving and punch needle ❤

🐱🐱 Officially all wrapped up for the year with Etsy and feeling very grateful/ totally ready for a break 😅🥂🎄 . The shop will remain open during Christmas but shipping times will be increased!

Happy Sunday! 🍃 I'm taking some time today to reflect on the past year and write a list of goals for the next one. It's always refreshing to start over in January and try new things, especially when you're focussing all of your energy on growing a small business. What do you hope to achieve next year? 🌟 . All Christmas orders are finished and shipped for the year, but there's still a couple of days left to sneak in some UK orders if you're quick enough! 🎅

Mondays.. 😴😴 Ready to cosy up on the sofa this evening and stitch some Christmas embroidery hoops 🎅🎄 . . #midgins #etsy #etsyuk #handmade #smallbusiness #craftsposure #abmcrafty #makersgonnamake #decorativepillows #handmadechristmas #catlife #blackcat #homedecor #shophandmade #handsandhustle #wearethemakers #supportsmallbusiness #catlover #creativelifehappylife #modernmaker #handmadewithlove #animallover #interiorinspiration #supportartists #catsofinstagram #creativityfound #supportsmall #christmasgifts
