Chris McConnell’s current work, being created at Chelsea Flower Garden, includes these butterfly-inspired structures, which are made from recycled steel and will hold hanging baskets.

"delighted cow"

drawing under the golden light of a lace lampshade.

Definitely a work in progress, seeing as I have no idea what to do next!

WIP - experiment in making a corsage from scraps of furoshiki fabric - needs a button or something in the middle and a ribbon or pin on the back so it can be fixed to a furoshiki bag

#workinprogress

I am leading a workshop called "The Book Artist as an explorer" and as a result I have discovered some treasures which have been hidden from view for a while.

I am now inspired to carry on with some work which has been left unfinished for some time

Just putting this here because I want to look at it and figure out what needs more work. I might redo the hand (because he is going to be dangling a piskey-purse, obviously) and rework the mouth a bit, though the mouth will look better when coloured in properly. And, obviously, I still have to draw in the countryside around him and the sea in the distance, but that I can do on another layer and paste it in. Oh, the joys of photoshop!

I finally got back to this quilt I've been making for Clark, buckled down and did the main piecing of it. This has been a total bear of a no pattern quilt in that there are variable lengths and widths--all to incorporate the different sized fussy cut robots. I can't believe it actually looks pretty much like I wanted it to.

making paper towel jewelry for a swap.

I realise it doesn't look much yet, but it marks the beginning of a much larger mosaic project :-)

work in progress

Eugenia uniflora Surinam Cherry.

I say mostly because I'm going to add a border to it, but the blocks have been all sewn together. I'm delighted with the layout and the overall look and blending of all the pastels and jewel like colors and the beautiful pictures in the centers of the blocks.

Cuff centerpiece: colourful chevron awaiting the cuff add-on detail.

All the Tyrell Corporation has brought so far is a head. That won't do! They say the rest of the body is still in the inceptor tank. I wish they'd hurry up...Pris is pouting about it.
