My Creative Space

Well, today is going to be a non-event for productivity... the house is a mess, even for me, and I need to spend some time really cleaning, tidying and ordering things... my brain always works better when the space is ordered, but the way I create is to pull things out of their 'away space', and mix colours and look at fabrics, and look at books, and compare old designs... and generally make a huge mess.

This is what you'll find around the place at the moment...

1. Lots of sketches... they seem to be multiplying around here...

2. Some fabric I printed using a photo emulsion screen. It's no where near perfect, but it's a vast improvement on the last time I used the emulsion, so I will stick at it!

3. A Ruby Doll I'm making for the Craft Hope project: dolls for girls living in an orphanage in South America.

4. Some fabric I have no idea what to do with, but could not resist whilst Etsy shopping a little while ago...

5. And of course, there are new bugs arriving all the time! This one is a little baby bug, inspired by the 'premmy' cabbage patch I had as a kid, made using cotton and Japanese linen.

More creative spaces as always at Kootoyoo!

Well, I'm off to clean and cook a big quiche for my Grandmother's birthday! Wish me luck!
