A little something different from The Gathered Seam today… 🏃‍♀️💕

Yesterday I ran my first ever 10K race! 🥹

Something I never imagined I’d be doing when I was sitting behind my sewing machine a few years ago or even 5 months ago!

It took a lot of patience, consistency and reminding myself that progress doesn’t happen overnight — much like running a small business.

There were definitely moments where I wondered if I could keep going, but I made it to the finish line in 1hr 3 mins. 🥹🏅

It’s been lovely to realise that the same determination I put into my sewing and my business can show up in other parts of my life too.

From sewing room to starting line… who knew?! 🧵🏃‍♀️❤️

A couple of weeks late sharing these, but I couldn't let our trip to Chamonix pass by without posting a few memories. 🏔️🤍

Taking a little time away with my family was exactly what we all needed. It gave us the chance to slow down, make special memories together and return home feeling refreshed.

One of the biggest highlights was that myself, Robert and Henry took the leap and went paragliding! 🪂 Safe to say we all landed with huge smiles on our faces. Turns out voluntarily running off a mountain is actually quite fun! 😂 Definitely one to tick off the bucket list.

Chamonix was especially meaningful for me, bringing back precious memories of visiting there with my dad when I was younger. Returning all these years later was emotional at times, but I'm so grateful to have shared such a special place with my own family. ❤️

Summer always feels a little slower here as I juggle work with the school holidays, but please rest assured I'm still working away through your orders in between the summer chaos. If you've sent me a message, thank you for your patience. I may take a little longer to reply at times, but I'll always get back to you as soon as I can. 🤍

Thank you, as always, for supporting my little business. It truly means the world, and I'm looking forward to sharing more keepsakes with you soon. 🪡✨

Following on from the rugby memory blanket, this rugby shirt cushion was another special keepsake created to celebrate years spent on the pitch.

It's always a privilege to transform clothing that holds so many memories into something that can be enjoyed every day. A simple cushion, but one filled with pride, dedication and unforgettable rugby days.

A wonderful way to keep those memories close. ✨

Each little square holds a precious memory, bringing together those tiny outfits that were loved so much. Finished with a cosy fleece backing, it's a keepsake that's just as comforting to cuddle as it is to look at.
