New Work: Dandelion range for Paperchase
Now and again I come across a pattern I designed in the shops. Today I spotted my Dandelion print on a whole range of products for Paperchase, including an 2012 organiser, gift wrap, note books and photo albums. I popped in earlier to have a look, very pleased to finally see them in the shops.

'Thankyou Teacher' range for Marks and Spencer
A while back I did some designs for Tigerprint who supply Marks and Spencer. The theme was a 'Thankyou Teacher' range and they were after some apple designs. My designs have been used on gift wrap and a gift bag. It was lovely to see them mentioned on the Print Pattern blog.

Boden Blog: How to by Rachel Cave
It's been very quite on the blog front, I've been so busy the last few months. Been working on a very exciting project which should be finished very soon and I can announce so watch this space!
A while back I was asked to do a small 'how to' for the Boden Community Blog. I did a step by step guide to creating a repeat pattern using my old spring floral pattern. Looks great and very pleased with the feedback!
