Coming up roses...

I can hardly sit still to type I'm so excited. I had to get up early to blog as I couldn't lie in bed any longer on this sunny morning filled with bird song.
I've been plugging away for ages lately on my website and on making cushions without much success. I needed a break. Last night after we got home tired & dusty from Church cleaning duties I got one , well two actually.
Let me explain. Last week my lovely friend Heather (Hi Heather) sent me a link to a website that's like a promotional site to link journalists & products together. The journalists search for stuff they like & the makers or suppliers upload photos of their stuff that they want promoted. (I'm not explaining it well but you'll get it soon). It's called Image Loft . If you click on that link you will see in the TOP right hand corner an orange cushion, THAT'S MY CUSHION. They emailed me last night to say....... "This week we have selected the Orange Striped Cushion out of the 13,000 images on Image Loft to be featured in this week’s Themed Category: A burst of Orange."....How bloody fantastic is that.
The other lucky break I'm trying not to get too carried away with yet but the words "Exclusive Range" come into it and this website has something to do with it. Cross your fingers, cross your toes, cross everything for me.
I've been so excited about Image Loft & the journalists who have already started to download photos that I've been sewing my fingers off. Here are some of the results.

Thanks guys. I hope you can still swim Mard with your legs crossed. Hmmm there might be difficulties in other areas too. You are relieved of duties for a week or two. OK?
