Great news - our hugely popular Sewing Rolls (a pile of which are shown in this photo) are in the March issue of Country Living. Subscription issues hit doormats this morning - and, already, the response has been fantastic. The sewing roll featured in the magazine is in a particularly pretty raspberry red floral French cotton dating from about 1910 - and we lined it with an apple green vintage blanket. One of the prettiest so far.As you may know, we are exhibiting at the Country Living Spring Fair in London in March, so it is especially heartening to have made it into the magazine just before we exhibit. Really looking forward to it (although, as it is the first time we have exhibited outside Scotland, also more than a little nervous!) - and if the reaction to the magazine is anything to go by, it will be a very exciting time for Twice.
Not as miserable about the Scottish weather as I was in my last post - have realised that there is good snow in the Highlands and, if the temperature doesn't rise too much before Wednesday, I am off to Glenshee to ski with Ellie (eldest daughter) who is on half term. It's possible to be on the slopes in under an hour from here - and when it's good, it's very, very good (and, yes, when it's bad, it's HORRID!).

Well done, it's such a great feeling of achievment, isn't it! My show card came through the other day for our feature in the Christmas edition, very exciting. I've not received my CL mag for this month yet, thankfully, just another distraction to keep me from the sewing machine!

Thanks Lisa! Yes, it's great. Hoping that CL can get a showcard ready in time for the Spring Fair. Love your new spotty brushes by the way.

Ooooh! .. that's a lesson in blogging - I just removed my last post because it had a typo and now it looks rather sinister! Anyway, what I was saying was a big thank you to Tracy for her kind, kind comments! I am so pleased that Twice has made it into CL - and, yes, we are all busy, busy, busy stocking up for the Fair. No idea how much to take, so all fingers and toes crossed that it's enough!

Just found you via CL and had to visit your website. Gorgeous! I am trying to get my recycling (more of an urban vibe)business going at the moment and seeing your site has spurred me on. Goodluck at CL
One of the things I love about doing Twice is giving a new lease of life to old fabrics and china - and it is a great challenge to look at something I've sourced and work out what it's next incarnation should be. If I could just do that and forget about administration it would be heaven! Thanks for kind message and good luck -
Just posted that last one using the wrong account - I'll get the hang of this one day!

Take care.
Alison.
