New studio - Gothik Designs is going back to Pontefract!

Hi everybody!

Well apologies to all as I haven't updated for quite a while! What with extreme weather, first cold and snow, then hot and dry - the lateste being gusty up to 70 mph winds!!! What are we to do? 

Anyway, Gothik Designs yesterday moved to a new home at Room 3, 29 Ropergate, Pontefract WF8 1LG - next to the Tai restaurant.Thde re-opening Party will be posted nearer the time. Got to finish a wedding for next week, and a mum of bride dress/jacket, then can think about decorating the new studio! Oh and then another wedding in July to do. . . plus updating the Facebook page, website and corset and waistcoats to make. Lots to do.

Hope to see some of you soon. Debi x

Wow its soooooooo cold! And its snowing a little again - just a flurry in the wind - the garden looks pretty though! Anyway finally started to do start some new emberoideyr designs - all from original medieval/tudor sources ie photos of orignal garments - woonderful resource books by Janet Arnold. Hopefully will start to get some worked front panels and trims so i can show you all what i'm working on.

All my embroidery is hand worked by myself using traditional stiches - particularly couching and chain stitch and all my designs are original and unique to me!

Well its short today but my hand is still recovering from being bruised! take care and keep warm. Debi x
