Whilst visiting the Textile Forum we were introduced to a fantastic charity the Fashion & Textile Children's Trust  who's aim is to support the education of the children of people in the UK fashion and textile industry. They have been doing great work since 1853!

Reunited

So after 3 months apart, with Jenny in India and me back in the UK, we have finally reunited in very rainy London!

The first meet up was full of swapping stories and findings from the last few months, with occasional tangents to discuss a little friendly gossip.

It's exciting times ahead and the plan now is to get everything into action - it is going to take a few months to get things sorted but our progress will be documented on here (as well as all other forms of social media!)

Any question, queries or just for general chat please do just email us!

So this weekend is the Country Living Christmas Fair. It feels a tad early for the Christmas spirit being a firm believer that the Christmas season should not start at least until Bonfire night is over at an absolute minimum!

However I am putting my beliefs and Scrooge like behaviour to one side in the name of Jayascarves research and I am off to explore it with my our friend Helen, looking at what people are selling, any similar business, quality and style of products etc...

The pictures of my visit will be posted but whether I can bring myself to do it before the 1st of December, I am just not sure!
