At Home Pop-Up Exhibition

Image
Last month I was honoured to be chosen, amongst several other talented artists from the local area, to take part in an open call pop-up exhibition at Patch in Bobby's, Bournemouth. The 'At Home' exhibition, curated by Millie Lake , invited artists to submit work reflecting on the concept of home, resulting in a diverse set of artworks being displayed. And without the possibility of hanging pieces from the wall, an exciting array of creative display methods! The piece of work that I submitted is called 'A Woman's Place'. Here it is, in situ at the exhibition: Photo by Eliza Naden 'A Woman's Place' questions cliched and outdated ideas of a woman's role in the household and suggests that 'home' does not always equate to safety. Here's a few of the other pieces that really caught my eye: Martin Roberts - I Want To Go Home Amara Leeming - Comfort Foods Carmel De'Lisser - My Soul's Home Esmee Rundle - Mars Starlord Zoe Larkins - Hom...

Frogday the Thirteenth

Image
I made this little starry eyed frog guy for my friend Rhonwen's birthday! It was tough to let him go... I used some strange green woven patterned cotton for his back with brown corduroy for his belly. All made from scraps of leftover fabric and lovingly hand sewn! Then I filled his guts in with polyester stuffing. A cheapy, quicky project with the hardest part being the darting. Boy am I making myself sound like a big time cheapskate today! Here's a not-so-great picture of his belly to get you back on my side: Awwwww! I don't know why that's cute, but it is. Unfortunately [again] I can't take too much credit for this project as I got the instructions and pattern from here ; I just simplified it very slightly. I would like to take credit for having extremely relevant bed sheets though. This froggy was born with the aid (or not) of a broken heart! Know what else aside from crafting cures a broken heart? New shoes . Oh yes. It's true.

Green & Thrifty Fortnight 2025 with Hampshire Libraries!

Image
This week I have been travelling around Hampshire delivering eco-friendly textile repair and reclaim workshops for Hampshire Libraries. Regular readers will remember that I did this last year  too. For this year's sessions I ran another patching workshop, where we worked on creative ways to patch up holes in clothes and for the second workshop, I was tasked with coming up with a craft that was green, thrifty and useful in nature - so we cut up old clothing to weave into trivets and coasters! This is a bit of a fiddly task, but many of the attendees of these workshops said that they found the braiding relaxing and everyone came away with a really lovely looking creation with a huge variety in results. Here's a few of my favourites from the week, although there were many more great makes: I should probably add that these sessions were only 45 minutes each, which is not a lot of time to make anything, so everyone did amazingly well. Thanks to all who came along and had a go and to...
