What's in your drawers?

Thought I'd post up a few photos of the things that I love, that I've hoarded over the years.
Can you see the tiny red silk shoe, belonged to a doll my Aunt bought in China when I was 10, only the shoe is left.
And what about the beautiful hand stitched wish bones made by my friend Charlotte Chance.
The last photo is my collection of beach plastic and other sea-worn treasures - I particularly covet fabric that's been washed up. Beach combing is one of my absolute favourite activities.

Trying something new.

I've been trying to draw in the backgrounds for these dogs who are taking themselves for a walk, it's my first attempt at drawing with an electronic pen, it feels weird and the drawing looks pretty ropey!

The Dogs!

So, I spent the day making dogs to add to the growing collection. I love making dogs, I love adding their ears and finding their character.

Sweet little rabbit.

I've just finished this little rabbit, a commission for a friend, cute!



Two new commissions.

This little doll was a real pleasure to make.
The customer chose the fabric, an original 1940's piece from Sal's Snippets and decided on the hair colour and tights.
