Next week - we start taking photos for the book we have been working on for the last 9 months! Our book features lots of wonderful Australian crafters - many that you will know - and some that you may not know too! We have 3 days of shooting planned so far - with a couple more days on the horizon!
It's a bit exciting and I feel a bit like an expectant mother. Lots of planning and co-ordinating and wondering and decisions... and now it's all starting to REALLY truly come together! I am SO excited!
After watching lots of other crafty books unfolding on some of my favourite crafty blogs - I can scarcely believe that before long it will be our book unfolding!
I've been working with Mary and Ellie at Hardie Grant for months and months. And we have a really great photographer (who I've worked with before) taking the pictures - and the very wonderful Michi girls from Ortolan are in charge of our design... and i just feel super lucky to be amongst such great people!
So no pinching, lest I should wake up from this very fantastic crafty dream!
xx Pip
