Hello Friday!
Hello everyone. How has your week gone? Hope you have got lots of lovely things planned for the weekend. The weather is starting to feel a bit more spring like. I spotted some snowdrops when I was out for a walk. It is so lovely when you see the flowers starting to bloom.
Claire and I have been busy getting back into our sewing spaces. I am writing our newsletter. It will be going out on the first Friday of the month. I shall be sharing a peek of one of our new makes. We hope you like them as much as us. Part of what we will be making in 2024 will be tied to one of our passions which is quilting and we belong to Swansea Quilters. Claire and I are always inspired every time we go to meetings by the skills of the lovely ladies many of whom have been members for many years.

Valentines Day is coming up on the 14th February. We still have some heart wreaths on our website. Check out our shop on www.sistermakes.co.uk/shop. There are also some lovely new Japanese knot bags which Claire has made. Leave our website open for your partners to see.
The Six Nations rugby tournament is due to start this weekend. Rugby is part of our Welsh DNA. We have some welsh themed knot bags which are great for being hands free when you are cheering your favourite team or celebrating with a drink or two!

Claire & I are busy gearing up for the Kidwelly Market on October 7th. We are looking forward to this as it is a new market for us. There are lots of amazing stalls selling all sorts of food and crafts. We always get a buzz from seeing people’s joy when they look at our lovely makes. We recently went to Cowbridge to restock at Cortile Coffee and The Cowbridge Craft Hub. It was so exciting to see our stock in the windows.
