new prints

am planning to incorporate some of these into my dress...

preview

showing... the 'pink' collection, am now back to teal...

purses (lips)

am onto my second purse, I am getting quicker... (and smaller)...although there are still not enough hours in the day. they shall all be different which makes each one exciting to create but unfortunately not so commercially viable ...i do it for love...
tomorrow I will finish the designs for stephen's wedding invitations...then the journey to see which (if any!) he likes...I am honoured to do it...

so many projects, so little time...

inspiration struck again this morning with a beautiful piece of poetry sent to me...here is a snippet..
'pearly membranes
impossible softness
beneath the speckled shell.'
but i need to draw... i need to stitch... i need to apply for a new exhibition; my new years resolution was to concentrate on one thing at a time, one collection then the next, it sounds logical but it is proving quite impossible...

today's inspiration

studio

(part of) where i work...

a & e

i have been to hospital; i cut my hand, i made a hole between my thumb and index finger...the web part. it hardly bled, was just a gaping hole, i could see right inside...3 stitches needed...too awkward a place so i only got 2, is this too much detail?
i can't drive or more importantly wash up...shall try stitching immediately...
