• We made it! 13 miles. A very funny run cantering through the streets of Eastleigh. We got a lot of tooting horns, smiles, winks and well dones!
We should run looking ridiculous more often! I couldn't stop laughing!
And you have all done such an amazing job in sponsoring us, together we have all made over £2000 for comic relief! Incredible. Thank you all!
OK... Back to some stretching and  stitching 😘🦄🦈 xx

  • A huge thank you to everyone who has sponsored Kate and I for our fancydress half marathon we are running tomorrow together.

Your money is going to Comic Relief who do excellent stuff helping people with incredibly tough lives!

We hope to spread a smile tomorrow as we gallop/swim through Hampshires streets dressed as a unicorn and a shark!

There's still time to donate... The link is in my bio, you should find a few videos of us explaining our antics on there too!
Thanks again ❤️

  • Heres a family portrait commission I created from photographs to celebrate the new Chinese New year! The year of the Ox!

I'm so greatful for all the commissions and portraits I've had over the last year/s they keep me doing what I love, travelling and interacting with people with my sewing machine.
Now I'm taking some time away from commissions to work on a few of my own projects... The travelling gallery being one of them and figuring out exciting plans for the UK. Life is all about the balance. ❤️

Check out our promo video
 'The Running Joke'

our Just Giving page is here: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/therunningjoke-harrietandkate

We have noticed a lot more runners on our lock down streets and we thought, what's funnier? A runner in their usual running gear OR a runner dressed as a super hero or a pair of runners as a comedy duo, it could be any costume you can find ! 

So we are leading by example, we want to spread that smile!

On March the 19th we will be running a half marathon in Fair Oak and Eastleigh, Hampshire, weaving the streets in costume for JOY and giggles! Currently we are a shark and unicorn ... but this may change ...We are open to costume suggestions.

We hope to make people smile and chuckle and spread the good work and awareness of Comic Relief.

SO SPONSOR US WHATEVER YOU CAN AFFORD ... or 

JOIN US ON MARCH 19th Don your costumes, get sponsors and run from a mile to a Marathon! 

And we can all safely gallivant around as duos and families spreading the fancy dressed joy ! 

Xx Kate and Harriet

  • Hello world!
How are you doing out there?
We've nearly done January!
Must be the slowest month in the calender, and now onto a short leap-year February and then Spring!
We have got this!
Despite finding my screen time has quadrupled in these recent times, I am so greatful for Online video calls! A small window into someone else's world.
Its allowed me to work, stitch portraits and meet some very interesting people from the comfort of my studio. Swipe to see the lovely Patty. We share a love for India and textiles, so we had lots to talk about during her portrait.
 
If you'd like to give the gift of a Zoom portrait I can stitch you a digital voucher to send to your friend.

£95 for a Zoom Stitched portrait.

  • The Knitting Circle. 
I found this group of women in Winchester library (pre covid) , they meet once a week to Knit and Natter. They kindly let me set up my machine and stitch them as they caught up on each others news and created new garments for loved ones.

  • The Spinners and Weavers.
Earlier this year (much earlier!) I was lucky to be invited to sit in and stitch the Isle of Wight Spinners and Weavers AGM. I love that groups of women meet around the world to share their love of textiles.
Stitched live on my Bernina.
