It could not have happened at a worst moment of the year but both my sewing machines are having problems I don't know how to fix yet…. The old Singer's pedal (we had changed when we got the machine) did not resist an intensive free motion session and started to melt again :( We are starting to wonder if the problem does 't come from the motor itself….. As for my Janome, something is really wrong but I have no idea what it might be! I am waiting for some sewing machine oils to be delivered and hopefully it will do the trick! Fingers crossed! But it is a real shame as I have sold quite a few things in my little Etsy shop lately and I am slightly out of stock, just before Christmas :( But hey, there is nothing I can do about it now so I might as well concentrate on the positive aspects of the situation.
I decided to make the best of my time and to work on an idea I have had for quite some time : make some little oil pastels paintings of imaginary (of course )cottages.

And to add even more little houses in my shop while satisfying my love for textiles this time, I have hand embroidered a cute little country side scene with cottage, tree, flowers and …sheep!
I think it is one of the creations I made I love the most!
