Tantalizer

Photobucket
Well four long long days of sewing, surrounded in gold, listening to
bashment, not seeing the outside world and finally I have made my
piece for the lot 78 show, privet view on tomorrow 5.30-9pm and runs
until sunday it is at the Red Lion Pub on Waverton street W1. Invite
is strict to the privet view but please come and have look over the
weekend.
I was inspired by my love of antiques and a piece called a Tantalizer, it
was used in the Victorian days and was a way of keeping people from
drinking your precious booze. A wooden contraption the showed you the cut
glass decanters for the spirits but you had to have a key to gain access to
them.

Psychologist

Last night I came across some photos from the shoot I worked on with photographer Isla McLeod. I LOVE them. It was a really long but fun day in an amazing location, with beautiful light and lovely people who had inspired ideas that got mixed up with happy accidents. My favourite kind of day. Annie Love has written a great article about the super-talented Iain Woods and his band 'Psychologist' that you can read HERE. Enjoy.

PIRATES!

So a while back I mentioned an exciting collective us gals have formed with Jimi Crayon, Jamie Brown, Josh Howard, MR P, Alfa, Teck and Will Robson-Scott. Well this is the opening project and it is all a bit nice. After a good write-up on the Creative Review blog and numerous other blogs there is definitely a buzz in the air. The most exciting news came today but I must wait to reveal all.
