As my name suggest,s I design and create many different things and am always learning more. I have been given a gift and I love sharing it with like minded people. I now teach classes and workshops mainly on patchwork and quilting. I am also learning new techniques in textile

art which is opening many new doors. so come an join me on a wonderful sewing adventure I guarantee you will have fun.

My little summer project which I started at my Mums in Cornwall a couple of weeks ago has been finished today with a little bit of stitch. I have ‘mellyfied’ my Nintendo Switch 2 case using Posca pens and my hand dyed threads for stitching. It is now unique! Now to get back to playing Pokopia on the Switch!

Earlier this year Alex and I were fortunate enough to travel once more with Aahilya Holidays - this time to Kerala . The tour company could not have worked hard enough to ensure we were all so looked after - each day is filled with another memorable experience - and craft and culture covered in equal measure . We met some fabulous ladies and a few of them are coming on our next adventure too ! This time our destination is Istanbul , Turkey - February 2027. If you are considering joining us dm myself or Alex for more information - or check out Aahilya Holidays website for a detailed itinerary. 🇹🇷

Later I met my nieces and we had a lovely time watching the Eclipse. Another lovely memory made….

Today we have been to St Michael’s Mount and Lands End. Beautiful scenery, gorgeous sunshine and the best company. Thank you Fabien and Mai. It was lovely to have my Bro with us too.

Best day yesterday. I visited my old home and was invited inside. This was so wonderful and bought back some happy memories. A big thank you to Vose Farm Cottages, Tregony, Cornwall for welcoming me in. You were both so lovely.
We then went to Mevagissey which was another place I used to live when I was 6 years old. It still holds the magic for me. Just glorious and all even better as I got to share it with my son, Fabien Missin and Mai. We also visited the The Lost Gardens of Heligan... where Steve Backshawl (Deadliest Sixty) was talking. Oh what a brilliant day. Thank you Fabes and Mai. ###

This is what makes my little job so worth while… these beautiful pieces have been created in my workshop classes by the very talented Sue Cogan. Such glorious work, vibrant colours and fabulous stitching.
I am going to put some new workshops on the website soon. Just off to have a holiday in Cornwall with my Mum. Then I will update the website. Sit, Sew and Create, Melly x
