Hook and String

16/06/2014

Those of you who know me, will know that I have been struggling with both motivation and inspiration, following the closure of, not only my retail outlet, but also my major source of inspiration, The Fabric Room.

Well today I have made a great step forward... cutting out 6 beautiful linen garments!!! Yay me!!

These will be available from STUR gallery, in the not too distant future. The very talented Kelly, at STUR, now stocks Hook and String clothing, along with lots of other fab products.... please make sure if you are passing through to call in and say hi.

Today I visited MISS MOSS in Milton ... what a treat ... gorgeous fashion, beautiful shoes and bright funky jewelry.... Siobhan has a great eye and style ... lots of very different ranges ... and what I love, she stocks only two or three of the same item.....

You will even find some pieces from Hook and String!!! It was a bit weird to see them hanging in a 'proper shop'! Thanks for your support Siobhan!

I have had a busy couple of weeks - some custom orders, extra stock for some up coming markets and trying out a few new patterns ... almost forgot that I received my new swing tags .... feeling a little bit fancy now!
