Felt Squares




These are a mixture of hand and machine sewn felt squares, i've had some of them framed but am thinking of making more and turning them into cushions or little blankets.

Button your lip


I spent yesterday convincing my boyfriend to get rid of a few of his t shirts. The one's that he really didn't want to let go of i turned into cushion covers. Making them led me onto this idea.

Goldie Lookin Car


Saw this on the way to work, it's amazing what you can do with a bit of gaffa tape.

Herman Dune


This is some sewing I did for a new interactive site for Herman Dune. It's a brilliant site that enables you to write your own message to a loved one on a giant love heart.

And it burns burns burns....

Can't believe Johnny's house has burnt down - it's so sad. I wonder if barry's excessive hairspray had anything to do with it.

Every stitch a tear


This is the main piece from my degree show, it's a tapestry 3m wide by 2m high which took three and a half months to complete. The idea behind it was to give me something constant to work on while mending my broken heart. It's the lyrics from Uncertain Smile by "The The". When the coloured letters are taken and placed together they form a question.

Passing time


I did this little bit of stitching on the eurostar.

Brussels


Went to Brussels for the weekend and spotted these flats - thought they were pretty cool, not as cool as the tasty beer though.
