Hi 

Many thanks to all  who have recently ordered covers, I'm hoping this trend will continue.

I am still posting on a Monday and a Thursday where possible. I live in an area which is prone to flooding,  so this only works when the weather is good to us. 

I am still trying to find things to make with small pieces of fabric - there is a box of mismatch pieces of fabric under my desk at present, one day I will have time to spend playing with shapes etc. 

When not making headset covers I've recently been making fruit for a National Trust house - yes out of fabric. I'm not sure how that will go.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

 A quick update...

Out of this world fabric - there is only enough to make one Sennheiser set of covers. If you want this fabric send me an email quickly, first come, gets the fabric.

Best wishes

Moira

 Hi

As I said in last month's roundup I sent another £300 to Help for Heroes. The total raised from the sale of headset covers since the start of the project is £5,700. Thank you to everyone who has bought a pair of covers. I know that HfH will spend the money to help those servicemen and women who need a help.

Looking ahead, Christmas is on it's way and headset covers are always good as a Secret Santa present. 

As always I prefer to post covers on Monday or Thursday mornings because this is when my local post office is open.

Regards, Moira


The summer has come to an end, or so the garden tells me. 

I've sorted out the fabric store in the office and had my sewing machine serviced again for the year. 

I've just forwarded £300 to Help for Heroes from the sale of headset covers this year so far. Many thanks to all who have ordered headset covers. Apologies to those people who would have liked football club fabric covers, the company I used in the past for this fabric have stopped trading. 

Postage costs are rising however, you can pay the same postage for two sets of covers as for one set. Why not get together with a friend to order?

I'm off for a dog walk now. Take care. Moira




Hi

I'd been doing so well and then I forgot to write this blog monthly!! 

What's been going on, well not a lot of orders this year, but there are still 6 months left until the end of the year.

I passed another year of making headset covers - I've now been doing it for 12 years.

We've had a lot of rain in the winter and early spring and shhh lately lots of dry weather. I may even get around to clearing out the office.

I do have some new fabrics to put on the website and I have just completed a fabric check to see what is in stock. Unfortunately at this time of year there is also a lot of gardening to do.

 Many thanks to all who have been supporting this project. If you can't support this HfH project there are lots of other charities around the country which would be glad of your support.

Take care

Moira

Hi

It's been a slow start to 2025, with very few headset cover orders. It's enabled me to have my main sewing machine serviced (I do have my trusty old machine so I can keep machining).

Today is a beautifully sunny, end of February day and Meg (my dog) and I are enjoying the sunshine - although there is a chill in the air.

Let's hope the covers take off in March...

Hi,

Happy New Year to all who read this blog. 

I'm sitting in the kitchen, it's the warmest place in the house today, looking at the garden and being thankful that we live in such a peaceful spot. The snowdrops are beginning to appear which is always a good sign at this time of year.

I will be adding some more fabrics to the website in the coming weeks. 

Best wishes, Moira
