Some new 'things' to keep me going

Here are some items I bought from Grace at Beyond Measure.  They are beautiful, lovely scissors in a leather case, a darning egg which opens to hold needles and some floss, also a beautiful needle holder.  Have a look at her Facebook site, she has some lovely items and will be opening up an online shop soon.

Embroidered Textile Works

These are some of the works that have been keeping me busy these past few months.  They are works completed on dyed linen napkins.  All fabric is linen which is stitch, dyed, rusted, screen printed and whatever I was playing with at the time ........  All approx 12" square.






Dogwood Nest

It's been such a long time since I've posted so I thought I would give a quick update.  I am currently at the final stages of working on the Storm project with an art group - 'Ceangailte'.  We are a group of 14 mixed media artists and planning our first exhibition in the coming months.

So today, instead of putting the final touches to some work,  I had a play with some dogwood.  I love how this turned out and hope to make a few more over the coming weeks.
