Ladies and gentlemen, girls and boys, TypeTogether is proud to present the mysterious and wonderful show of Fabulous Homola, typography's favourite illusionist! Seriously, we invite you to take a peep at the playful Soleil Magic Caps, a display companion to the geometric sans Soleil, designed by Wolfang Homola – with release date scheduled for early 2015.
My first three-stage reduction linocut! Just the final black layer to go. There are a couple of areas I don't like on this but overall I'm pretty happy with it.
Hand-mixed oil-based inks on 210gsm smooth Norfolk paper.

The Suffragettes.
This shows two sample brooches made using textile, image transfers, paint, emamelling powder and wire.
I find it almost impossible to throw away scraps of fabric ( or paper come to that) and so I end up with boxes of the stuff.
These are the offcuts from my Brexit project ( the printed text) which I've free machined on to a background of quilting fleece and then bonded further scraps to the top.
I have no idea where this is going but it feels a better solution than just throwing the individual pieces into a storage box
Full aluminium whith Campa & Shimano mix
Letters from one of my favorite: www.flickr.com/photos/janetbikegirl/4330745505/in/faves-r...
I don't asked Janet but hope she's ok !!
There's no sticker on the frame. Letters are resurfacing (Sablage) on polish aluminium.
These are only the colors in the first box..I cannot deny that it was very exciting to open all of them!!
I've had an utterly unproductive day but don't particularly care - Hannah back at school, Emily at a friend's house for the INSET day and Paul in the office meant I had the house to myself for the first time in too long. A bit of admin, a bit of online browsing, tonight some sewing.
I'm working on a new embroidery, it's on a lovely crisp linen tea towel.
It just needs a name, any suggestions?
Blogged 3 June 2010.
The start of a new project.
There is a process which is inevitable.
This is:
The sorting of the threads.
The cleaning of the sewing machine.
The winding of the bobbins.
The clearing of the work table.
And finally, the thorough washing of the spectacles!
A very rare day alone, which I am setting aside for stitching and gardening. More of the former I hope.
I decided to have a bit of fun and make a wacky handbag. This is the first stage.
I went to a scrummy shop in Much Wenlock ( Ippkin... www.ippkin.co.uk) and bought some Colinette yarn ( www.colinette.com) and a shell button in a wonderful deep yellow colour.
I then used a pair of 20 mm needles to losely knit a rectangle, which I will now weave with strips of knotted fabric and other strange things.
