Pods




This is print number three in the new range and is printed on the stone linen/cotton blend. What do you think of the yellow on stone print? Gareth isn't a fan and I really like it and I would love to know what others think of the colour combination. This print was made with the drawing fluid technique so I have the screen available permanently, rather than the paper stencils which have a shorter life.




I made up some more fabric brooches, but they are a lot different from the last ones I made. I have added a button and kept the stitching more minimal so you can see the print detail. They have denim with heavy interfacing sandwiched between them so they are quite sturdy. The linen/cotton fabric is really lovely and the best stuff to print on, the colours seems to really stand out on it.


I went along to the Spiegeltent today to check out the space for a market that will be running for 6 weeks in November and December called Bizarre Bazaar. The market will be running on a Sunday morning from 9.30am - 1pm inside the tent and entry is free. I am sharing a stall with Shonah, who makes beautiful pendants from fabric, resin and wood and also sells at Rose Street. Hokey and Starashan are also going to have a stall so come on by if you're in the city on a Sunday. It starts on November 9th and should be a fantastic market in a great location.

I really love the blue print, but I think the yellow's nice. There are some definite yellow fans out there who will love them.

Wow I adore all of these - I love the print and the colours!

As for the yellow & stone, it doesn't quite stand out as much as the other colours but I think it still looks great.

And again I have to say I LOVE your photos! Such nice lighting! I have been struggling trying to get good lighting lately...
