Like many textile artists I find that if I produce items for sale, the cost of production (which includes the time dyeing the fabric, painting the image and then stitching and assembling) rarely results in an economic price. This is one of the reasons why I don't often make things to sell.
In a fit of madness I have agreed to do an exhibition where I am required to do just that.
I took the decision to make just a few items which is why I have been happily making rather large and elaborate pin cushions. These will have to be priced realistically, so in order to have some pieces which will be more affordable I have copied the image of Margaret Thatcher from a previous pin cushion and transfered the image using T shirt transfer paper. This means that I can produce smaller and more easily assembled items and thus charge less. One down and three to go, and already I'm bored ( and it shows). There is no pleasure in mass production which is why I avoid it at all costs.
vintage sheets found thrifting today, along with some sunburst granny squares whipped up since last night.

This gentleman from the Amuzgo community of San Pedro Amuzgos, Oaxaca was selling textiles at a holiday crafts market in Oaxaca City, Mexico
I had a meeting with a textile artist from Skien. She's here explaining me about the latest product she's made.
For you who can't quite see what it is, it's a woven "carpet" that represents a world map. Its woven in the colors green, yellow, brown and white. The plumb blue lines are the latitudes.
It was a fantastic peace of art.
Best viewed large!

My sister and I went to the Scottsdale Arabian Horse show in Scottsdale, Arizona. Well, dummy me, I forgot my SD card for the camera. So the only shot I got was this one in camera. Needless to say, I was the typical photographer forgetting film (SD Card) or not having enough batteries. You know the drill. Dumb move. I was kicking myself all the way home. So much for testing this camera. My only saving grace was the light was so bright that the shots outdoors would be terrible due to it being so bright. Well, maybe.

Just finished this new textile picture. Its hand stitched on linen with 1970's french fabric and vintage 1960's Peter Hall fabric.
Went shopping with my wife. Was fascinated by the richness of textile patterns. Reminds me of the recently popular "zentangle" idea. (WE and Gerry Weber)

Preparing the textile samples involved separating them from their folders which happily proved straightforward. Next, I researched the dimensions of the trending phones, pads & laptops, not the most interesting stage in the process but easily accessed. Most of the work were completed on my sewing machine with finishing second hand sewn. The whole project was completed within two working days with a satisfyingly large body of finished work, a relatively rare outcome for me.
