A new stamp for my shop
I recently bought this customised, hand-carved stamp from Drum Chick Designs on Etsy. As you can see from the photographs, the quality is excellent - I can't wait to start using it!
I also love Drum Chick's cupcake and owl stamps. I think they could make fantastic Christmas presents.

Autumn in London
Autumn is my favourite time of year!
Here are my attempts to capture some scenes in Regent’s Park and our local cemetery. These photos were taken with my Sony DSLR camera.

Halloween
This year we had a pumpkin carve-off, the results of which are below. His is flashier than mine (typically). I hadn’t done this for years but I can see it being an annual fixture. I’m already planning for next year...
His:
Mine:
Just before Halloween, I heard about the American recipe of “Dinner in a Pumpkin”, which I had to try for myself. Just scoop out the inside of a culinary pumpkin and add cooked minced beef, condensed cream of chicken and mushroom soup, onions, peppers, garlic and cinnamon. Then bake it in the oven for a couple of hours with the lid on and serve with garlic bread or whatever takes your fancy. I thought it looked pretty impressive and it certainly disappeared quickly. I also attempted a sweet pumpkin pie, but the less said about that the better!

A little bit about me
Hello, my name is Lucinda and I live in London, England. I have an Etsy shop called 'LuliBags', which I opened in late April 2009. I sell a range of handmade bags and purses, using a mix of modern and vintage fabrics.
I work full-time in the City but my passion lies in sewing and music. I also enjoy cooking, photography, ashtanga yoga, vintage shopping and gardening.
I set up this blog to share Etsy finds, simple sewing tips for any would-be crafters out there and anything else creative or inspiring which takes my fancy.
Feel free to comment on my blog, I'd love to hear from you. You can email me, convo me via my Etsy shop or find me on Twitter and Facebook.
