My signature color(s): Purple and Teal  

3 things in my handbag right now: Purse, Hairbrush and Business Cards  

The superpower I would love to have: Invisibility......or supersonic sewing!!!  

I get inspired by: my children and their imaginations  

What I’m reading: The Lady of the Rivers by Philippa Gregory  

If you could live anywhere you wanted (money's no object), where would it be? Cornwall.....or Scotland..... BOTH!!! 

Where do you see yourself/business in 5 years? Hopefully still making enough to support myself and my kids - maybe having someone do some of the basic sewing to speed me along 

Favorite Reality TV Show: Strictly Come Dancing 

If you were forced to only have 1 make-up item, what would it be and why? I don't really wear it so I'm not fussed day to day. For a night out it would be mascara as I make the effort to put my contacts in and I like my eyes :D  

What's your favorite item you've ever made? My 1st ever monkey - he looks bloody awful but if I hadn't have made him then I wouldn't be where I am now. He is sat on a shelf keeping an eye on the newcomers! 

Emma's photo stories: 

#1 Eiffel Tower - had wanted to visit Paris all my life and finally got there Summer 2010 - just me and my daughters :)
#2 Owls - beautiful birds and we had a group visit for my daughters' joint birthday party this summer
#3 my 1st monkey - not a reflection of my current work HA!
#4 my hobby - cross stitching - not something I get much time for at the minute :(
#5 my daughters - my inspiration and reason for getting out of bed :D
