Playing around with my screens

This was a men's t-shirt I made for a friend the other week. The motif is an abstract drawing of tree trunk slices. You can't quite tell in the photograph but they are a mix of black and grey. I taped off the edges to give it a clean edge shape, a bit more suitable for a bloke I thought!

A few more makes

My friend James requested a sleeve for his Blackberry and chose his fabrics from my stash. I think he chose very well! A nice contrasting carrot orange for the lining worked well with the green gingham, and this was my first use of my new fabric labels.

I've not yet made a sleeve for an ipad, only Kindles so far so this was a commission by a lovely lady off Etsy, I made it just using the dimensions and was worried it wouldn't end up fitting but it does perfectly apparently! So if anyone would like one just ask.

Owls - Just to make a change!

A lovely children's owl range in BHS at the moment, I used to work in the home department here back in the day, I always loved seeing the new ranges come in.

Riot Raffle

One of my basket designs is part of the Riot Raffle, which was started off on Twitter by Zoe the other week. She's made awesome things happen with it all so far. So go buy a ticket and see what you might win!

Dubai Goodies

I was asked by a soon-to-be primary school teacher in Dubai to produce a collection of handmade things for her classroom in a brand new build. She wanted a mix of storage baskets, large cushions for the 'carpet area,' bunting and a big fabric panel that she's going to use as a register for the children. I chose some very bright colours as her class are aged four! and got sewing. Here is a little sneak peak photo of what I've made, I can't wait until she sends me photos of them in location!
