I’m so happy!
MY stash found yesterday! I’m going to use them to make more brooches -see www.jemmajo.etsy.com and look at my new brooches.
can’t wait to get started!
hooray! New Studio!
At last after 7 years of waiting I’ve got a new studio ! Can’t wait to have most of my stuff out of the house and my loom saved from the garden!!
Not quite sure how I’m going to afford it but I’ll just have to chase those potential commissions! ( I have a few) tapestry portaits in the potential pipe line!
Any way I’d better get on…
just desperate to tell you!
craft fair work
been working like a mad woman for this fair, did it yesterday and sold 3 scarves ,3 waist coats and no booties even though everyone picked them up and said “oh how cute!”
also a picture there of some fabric I got from a charity shop, white and silver, think I’m going to put it on a black scarf.
Really want to do some weaving soon getting a hankering for it! So today I uploaded the bootees I didn’t sell to my etsy shop.
finished product!
just about to start another one but suddenly realised I hadn’t posted a pic of the finished waistcoat!
new idea!
i’ve been thinking how to have a new product for men on the stall………..
so i’ve come up with these waistcoats which are 2ndhand and applique them with vintage fabrics like the scarves- what do you think?
New colourways! and a wee tribute….
-
- new colourway blues
These scarves are all new, the tan and purple one are already in my jemmajo shop – the tan one at a sale price because of a slight discolouration of the scarf – hardly noticable when being worn…..
Today had sad news that one the biggest influences of my life has died and I just want to say a wee tribute to our wonderful bright and sparky artistic friend – who influenced me into artschool – Sheila MacIntyre of Inverary Argyll will be very much missed……
more new scarves for the up and coming craft fairs!
New Scarves getting ready for the craft fair in Byblos Glasgow on the 25th of September!

Janice and I did a wee photo shoot yesterday for the application form for ‘made in the shade’ craft fair at the litehouse on 29th of October I hope we get in!
OOPS I’ve managed to put the same photo in twice!
I just love the grey/silver scarf and also the white one janice did!
She’s going to make some cards with the scrap bits”! I think they will look good!
got to go and pin some more! i’m so inspired by the scarves made already!
New labels , New Scarves!
New colours …..Blues! also our new labels came today which i can’t wait to put on our scarves!

- new labels
Have pinned pinks and lilacs and blues onto the more turquoise one already!
looks gorgeous!
BRAND NEW shop on Etsy!
I’ve at last opened a new shop for the j’emmajo scarves and moved them there from my knitting shop byemmajo. This may seem a little strange to do that but I’ve had so many commissions for scarves recently that it seemed to be the right thing to do and not have them mixed up with knitting and other things. Actually I named the shop back in april but couldn’t decide whether to or not…
Today I’ve pinned out a gorgeously rich chocolate brown scarf with purples and blues will get a photograph soon…I also started doing some wee cotton bags but am not sure………….will photo them when I think they are right.
