MOVING TO WORDPRESS! www.emilygreen.net

Hello all! I have recently set up a Wordpress site: www.emilygreen.net that I will now be blogging from! Please visit me there from now on. This will be my last post from blogspot. See you soon!

Wow, it has been a big break from blog world and I have been missing it very much! The main reason I have been so absent is that we don't have and internet connection at home at the moment (grrrrr!) and after a very hefty bill from my mobile company as punishment for tethering my phone to the computer, I have had to take a bit of an internet diet. I am however, currently indulging in an internet binge at my lovely friend Jade's house so that I can put up a few new necklaces that I've made recently.

Harvest Textiles Christmas Market THIS SATURDAY!

This weekend the lovely folk at Harvest Textiles are holding a Christmas market. Come on down for some last minute Christmas gift delights! p.s I'll be there!

sorry and hello

wow, it's been a really long time since i have posted and i feel rather guilty. i have lots of things to post about that i will present as a bit of a list of excuses for my lack of posting...

1. very exciting news! i am now stocking my brooches at gorman! about two weeks ago i met with the lovely ladies there and they chose a range of 5 brooches to stock in gorman stores throughout australia. they ordered 267 pieces and i set myself the somewhat mental task of completing them all in a week. and, yes, it was a busy, busy week of late nights and early mornings but it was all worth it in the end to have a dream come true and have my work in one of my very favourite australian stores. please pop in and have a look!

2. on the same day that i met with gorman i received an email from the lovely milly at craft victoria, asking if i could pop in to see if they might like to stock my work! all went well and i am now stocked at craft victoria too! they have a range of my brooches as well as a range of my fimo chain necklaces. every time i go in there i get stuck for ages drooling (figuratively) over all of their beautiful things. thank you again craft vic ladies! you are so very lovely and fabulously supportive!

3. i participated in two markets - the bikefest craft hatch market at 1000 pound bend, as well as a group stall for RMIT textiles at the design market last sunday. both went really well and i bought some pretty cool goodies that i will post about later on.

Weekend in Perth

I got back to Melbourne last night (after a 45minute delay) at 12am from a weekend at home in Perth. I went back for my mum's 60th Birthday and also to meet my newborn second cousin Finn. Here are a few photos from my days away.

'Asparagus trees' that I spied near the coast!
