Grey days? Fill your life with colour!

Morning all! It is Monday morning, before 8am, and I am on my way to the day job. Since Sophie's Room is still such a new venture for me, I am an administrator by day. On mornings like this, when I'm sitting on a train platform and the sky looks grey, the air is chill, and I'm still feeling a bit bleary-eyed, that I feel I would rather be pottering around a beautiful craft market, or wrapped up warmly taking a walk, or (and this may be my favourite option) sitting in the warm, with a cup of tea, sewing, or designing some new little creature for Sophie's Room.

So, what raises a smile on this grey day? I have to say, a quick flick through the pages of Folksy Favourites is an excellent tonic for the monochrome of Monday morning. And I am doing my best to contribute to it, with a brand new mini mobile! This one has been almost as long awaited as the Blue Birds mini mobile, but it is here at last, and I am actually really pleased with the result!



Designed and entirely hand sewn, by me, using felt and cotton, this merry little band of owls is bound to bring a little colour into your life! If you like the look of this mini mobile, then you can find it in my folksy shop at http://folksy.com/items/5469551-Rainbow-Owls-Felt-Mobile-small

I do hope you'll pop along and take a closer look! There will be more little felty friends coming soon and, as always, I'll keep you updated here as they come into being!
