a gift from germany

October 13th, 2010

Wasn’t expecting this delivery. And definitely wasn’t expecting it to put such a smile on my face. Our Labphon paper is contained within these pages! It was really my supervisor’s baby, but nonetheless, lovely to see our work finally in print!

if i were a textile designer…

February 20th, 2009

I love fabrics and textile design, but it wasn’t until I was on my trip around the South Island of New Zealand that I ever felt compelled to consider putting any designs to paper or the digital equivalent. Of course I haven’t, but if I had such talents I’d base some of the work on these incredible sand and water formations. I took these photos by Farewell Spit: the first two are of sand dunes, while the third is closer to the water on the beach.

     

bonsai zipper pouch

A zipper pouch made for a friend using Lara Cameron’s Bonsai Forest in deep red. Thankfully I nabbed a decent amount of this fabric so more sewing to be done!

elisabeth and her apron

January 30th, 2009


Some people may be familiar with this print as I made a skirt from it a few years ago. It’s a vintage Sheridan cotton fabric called Sunrise. It’s vibrant and happy, and I thought it would be great for an apron. It’s being modelled by the lovely elisabeth, who was the perfect Christmas present!

(Ja, it will be for sale when I finally set up shop… maybe in a matter of weeks!)
