ok well i've been doing abit of shopping the past few days and was really happy to find this beautiful patchwork blanket in a charity shop, it was abit dirty when i brought it but i managed to get it cleaned up and fresh again :) i've always wanted a patchwork blanket, but i never had the patience to make one myself.
other news: i'm in the process of setting up another site where people can buy my creations :) after next week my plates and mugs from my show will be up for sale on my site also. keep an eye out for it!

show
well as of last night, our college final shows have opened, and i've decided to take a couple of photo's of my final display. The images are abit blurry but the general idea was to create some bitchy ceramic-ware, worthy of a gift shop :) i also have my portfolio,sketchbook, and contact cards on this display.
close up of my hanging mugs and final plates.
All of my plates and mugs are for sale, at £3.50 for a mug and £6.50 for a plate :) the plates with only gold on are suitable for use, but the other original blue plates are better suited for just decoration :)

old bag!
ok about a year or 2 ago i knitted this bag out of different coloured satin shreds, i lined it with abit of the left over orange satin, and untill now i loved it, with the exception of the crappy handles it used to have, however i've just dug it out from under my bed, and added 2 wooden handles, painted red and white in acrylic. Now i just need to add one of my tags and it'll be all done :) if anybody is interested in buying anything from my blog just leave a comment and let me know :)

MORE socks
I've been pretty productive today, and have decided to make some more sock monsters, but to add abit more of a charm to them :) after getting quite alot of fleece last week, i decided to felt my own little patches to use for the faces of my latest monsters, and made them even sweeter by adding my own hand-sewn faces :) So far i have made a stripey sock cat
and a weird little blue thingy....currently working on a partner for him ;)
close ups of the faces to show felt and sewing :)
hand made felt ears, nose, and eye rims
paintings
ok i've done a couple more acrylic piccies over the day, i've got quite a big recycled canvas which became this :) , unfortunately the flash on my camera is horrible, and it's difficult to fit the full image into view. I also took the awsome idea of painting on vinyls from wren,check out her myspace. And i came up with just a little practise, whith a piccy of my bunny :)
cute!
Ok, i work in pets at home and i've been eyeing up one of these for a while now, so yesterday i decided to make my hamster super cool by buying him a chopper haha even if it is pink. He doesn't quite understand it yet, but when he does start to use it i'll try and get some pics :)
