My first long screenprint from the printing to the washing to the drying

I've been working on a repeat tile for this piece. I'm going to screen print it this week, fingers crossed it turns out OK!

I like bananas because they have no bones

I had an interview with a local paper this week about this rock snake I started on the longest street of a nearby city (where I work) because it's bringing people so much joy:

I said something during the interview that the interviewer seemed really shocked by, so in case it's important for anyone else to hear: When asked about the rock snake and some scavenger hunts that I've hosted for adults, I said -

"We don't stop enjoying the things we liked as kids; they just stop being offered to us. And when you're a kid, fun things like art projects and scavenger hunts are always brought to you, so you're not taught to make a habit of seeking them out as and adult."

She said "Wow yeah... life is so stressful... and you don't think to... wow."

So if anyone else needs direct permission to be a whimsical adult child today, I hereby grant it to everyone. ❤️

2 prints I've been selling at markets with my textiles class to raise money for attending New Designers in London next year. The ugly turkey is just a page from one of my sketchbooks from 2nd year that people really liked.

More scrappy patch experiments

Including plasters for holey clothing? Haven't decided whether it's actually practical yet but they're very cute

(The house isn't finished yet but I ran out of thread)

Free-motion embroidery scrappy patches

Patchwork cushion made from scrap fabrics

The colours I picked from the scrap bin were definitely rogue but I decided to stick with it and I'm pretty happy with the result. Although I perhaps regret how much of the yellow I used just a titchy bit
