Eugenie Alexander

Someone has kindly sent me a link to a  wonderful little pathe film about Eugenie Alexander who created many of the illustrations for my Fabric Pictures Book. An unusually attentive husband! Good to see a woman making her living from fabric collage so long ago.

Fabric Pictures

A lovely charity shop find. Published by Mills and Boon in 1959. This edition 1967.

2 places left on "Loving Lace" at The Hearth on Sunday 12 th June. If you are interested in booking a place please contact me through my web site. I am going to include making a beautiful paper glove like this

More Winifred

Another still Life collage inspired by a painting from Winifred Nicholson. I am not very happy with my photographs at the moment but hope it gives you a clue. Hope to run a course on this in the Autumn.

Uppercase

I have a double page spread in the current issue of the beautiful magazine Uppercase. Check out the web site HERE. It is worth signing up for the newsletter which will lead you through links to some interesting artists and designers.

My little pony

Dogs

Today I have been constructing some little collages around a few dog cigarette cards that I have been meaning to use for sometime. These will be made into handmade cards and will be available at our Open Studios event on 7/8 May.
