Hello once again,

May is a month of new life, growth and regeneration.

In the last few weeks Harris has been blessed with a wonderful spell of warm sunny weather. It can be a truly stunning month to visit. Lambs are everywhere (including on the roadside), the flag iris’ yellow/green leaves are shooting up, yellow gorse decorate the roadside, pink rhododendron are popping up all over and white Daisy paths can be followed with amazing landscapes at their end – it really is glorious.

It seems very fitting that it was at the end of May that we finally secured permanent premises for our business. The Barn at Ardhasaig is going to take many months of renovation until we can open to the public, so in the meantime, we will continue to operate our business at Talla na Mara, through our website and Facebook.

Our new premises will enable us to move all of our design and production (embroidery and glass) onto one site. We will also be open to the public, which will mean we can develop our creative hub and allow the whole team to be more involved in every aspect of the creative process. It will mean we can offer new all year round employment, visitors will be able to see us at work  AND in the future we plan to run workshops – as we said; new life, growth & regeneration!

Oh, did I mention the view???

Thank you so much for all of the wonderful messages in the last few days – they are all very much appreciated.

Exciting times ahead!

With lots of Love from Harris,

Kate and Doug x
