the psychedelic cows of surrey

Pictures from a sunny art day at Birtley Estate last Saturday. Birtley is host to some colourful cow sculptures, and Suzy did them full justice in her prints.

This one made me think of a disco version of the Lascaux caves:



















































Everyone enjoyed the textural quality of monoprint making, although this log doesn't look too happy about it!

happy birthday Eternal Maker!

Saturday's birthday bash at the eternal Maker https://eternalmaker.com 
was a brilliant success!


















Such a lot of visitors, and such a lot of inspiring makers selling their wares. Look at these woolly superheroes, made by Heidi, at Handmade by Heidi.


























And this tee shirt, made by Millie who works at the Eternal Maker. Who wouldn't want two crocheted fried eggs on their tee shirt?



























Such a lot of people came in beautiful handmade clothes. Love this robot dress,








































and Anna's wonderful pirate galleons.







































Thank you to the wonderful laughing ladies from the Best Shop Ever!

sewing madly

At the moment I am sewing madly, to get enough items ready for a table at the wonderful Eternal Maker fabric shop's 10th birthday party sale next Saturday!

I'm making pouches, big enough for pencils or makeup, decorated with rather eccentric ladies. 














They all start off in much the same way,































but then seem to take on a life of their own without my permission. This lady appears to have decided to do a little light dusting in her bikini...


























…and this lady has forgotten most of her bikini completely.




























The small purses I'm making have just hands on them, but they are each fully equipped with nail varnish and jewellery.
































I will also have fat lady and muscle man brooches, and hopefully more besides.


















Maybe I'll see you there if you live near to Chichester?
