Where Am I ?

Good Evening.......well yes I'm still here.....

I have been up to my eyes in sewing just recently. Sandwiched in between

working and dog walking.


A bit of 1950's glamour.....or my copy anyway......for a university May Ball.


Then some pre Saxon dress-up costumes for the museum education boxes.



And now in the middle of a set of Victorian pinafores also for the museum. MANY

pin tucks, yards of broderie anglaise trimming (unfortunately I have run out and need

to find some more super quick!) and then there will be sixty buttonholes to sew :(


So anything painty arty has been sidelined again

But don't worry I will get back to it soon.....hopefully.

For now, back to the sewing machine, P.

Fly Me To The Moon......

Good evening!

A quick post to let you know that I have a project on the PaperArtsy blog

tonight.


Taking a trip into outer space with a family of robots, their plants and pets.

See more by visiting HERE.


Live long and prosper,   P.

I Think I'll Frame This One........

Good evening All,

It's been wall to wall sunshine this week (in fact nearly two weeks), so any time not

at official work has been spent outside. Plus we are in the middle of the TT racing

festival, the two weeks of the year when the island is lively!

But yesterday afternoon I needed to cool down a bit so I made this....


I am slowly learning how to "drive" the Infusions powders, so that they sort of do what

I want but still have that uncontrollable element of surprise. You never get the same result

twice.


I love the textures that appear


And the romantic effects


So I think I'll frame this one :)

Back to the sunshine now, come back soon, P.
