Creating the paper pattern of Australian Pelican.

 

I'm currently working in collaboration with artist/illustrator Rachel Arthur. She has illustrated 7 fabulous Australian coastal birds that I'm transforming into a range of art toys to become part of the Flying Star Toy world.

 

We both have a love of folk art and a desire to evolve an iconography of our local environment. This coastal bird series of art toys (7 int total) are all birds found in the local environment around Brisbane Australia.

 

Black Swan, Silver Gull and Australian Pelican will shortly be exhibitioned in Sydney.

New challenge on Spoonflower - "My Valentine"💗. To please your lover you need to be prepared in advance. Here is my "Winged lovers" pattern for this purpose😊 The pattern depicts a couple of young people in love holding hands and looking at each other. The inscription love under the figures of men and women forms wings. In the pattern there are large laconic forms, an element with anaglyph effect-hearts and bright, pleasant colours of living coral, yellow-orange, white, black. The image carries a message of mutual love and happiness. Products with the pattern "my Valentine" are suitable for a gift for Valentine's day, in love, on the wedding day or its anniversary, for a romantic cafe or interior. The fabric will soon appear in my shop on Spoonflower: bit.ly/2RsGK0Y The link to the contest: bit.ly/2GU40kc #tanistaja #tanistaja_pattern #diy #crafty #spoonflower #spoonflowermakers #textiledesign #patterndesign #ornaments #seamless #fabric #surfacedesign #pillow #bedding #tablecloth #curtain #napkin #wallpaper #wrappingpaper #originaldesign #homedecor #patternmaking #patterns #patternlover #sewingpattern #stvalentin #lovestory #romance #myvalentine #loveheart via Instagram bit.ly/2AvX7jH

I purchased Design-it-Yourself-Clothes and quickly whipped up a few skirts. Then a month later I became pregnant with my second child and was disappointed that I would be back into my maternity clothes. Not long after I realized my error and started drafting again. I love this book!!! Thank you Cal Patch!!

Are they mousebears or bearmice?

 

These and other sets of twins will be up in my shop. I'm making them for a craft show in April.

 

Also, this is the 'evolution of Mousebear' the 'scraps' toy I made for my daughter that has become her favorite lovey. This pattern is called (in my sketchbook) 'Mousebear V.C.' for version C, since the other two look nothing alike I can't really call them 1, 2 and 3 ;)

 

See other bearmice here and here.

Making a new copy of a vintage 80's item for a customer, while constructing its pattern without any other tools than a pen and a tape measure. (I have just started to even make my customer's patterns all freehand - not using pins, rulers or construction manuals. And for trueing lines, I use a simple folding technique instead. Much quicker and with more fluid lines. Less is more!)
