Well, I'd like to think I'm finished with this piece... but there are still a bunch of little things I don't like. Of course the more you dicker with the details the more likely you are to totally screw everything up. So I'm desperately trying to leave this guy alone now.
This is an inside view of an individual button of the Pants Interface. This piece is a momentary switch, constructed from scratch out of fabric. This one uses about ten pieces of fabric to create a shape that closes a circuit when you press it.
I really liked this retro wallpaper. Too bad we couldn't keep it (could be nice at least at one wall).

A snowy day which I spent in the studio decorating fabric and paper.
This piece of newspaper was underneath the fabric to protect the table whilst i was painting.

Part of my new project - a book called "The space between"
As usual, this is getting very complex both in imagery and in structure.
I have decided that some pages will have to be solid, that is without cut through's, as viewing the images from both sides leads to rather too many decisions.
Copious quantities of tea have been required during the designing of these two pages, and I have only shown one view here.
I may change the layout of these pages when I come to assemble the book.
The transformation from stark white with some color. This will the the accent-wall for this room. This is the opposite wall from the TV wall.
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.
Thinking about Christmas? I know some very organised people who are which is why I'm busy making White Christmas Birds this week.
BIP Box in progress /WIP have a little box of goodies where one has turned into three and to keep them all together I put them in this little brown box. They almost finished. Except for the clothes. I'll keep you posted.
I found this old canvas when I was looking for something else in my attic.
It was part of the Ada Lovelace series, but in the end I rejected it as too bland.
So, I have now decided to recyle it and as you can see I have pulled some of the motifs off the canvas and I have painted over the rest.
The first layer was black gesso, then dark red acrylic and a bronze acrylic layer on top.
It now awaits another layer of black acrylic.
I just love painting over stitching and fabric and seeing something new emerge.
The Musk Orchid can reproduce vegetatively and so it is common to find them in pairs, clumps and groups.
