Coming Show

I have a show coming up in July so much to my families shergrin my studio is taking over the whole livingroom at the moment as I cram every working hour in I can. They are actually being quite tolerant of the situation. I have to be thankful. Would you want to live with this mess?




These are some dolls that I've been working on.

I call them "Sassy Girl" and they each have thier own name sewn on the back, with a ribbon to hang them.

Some of them are made with vintage nude photos. I plan to place these ones behind a screen that will have a sign saying naughty dolls. They have an X on thier name tags, as in x rated. This one is not stuffed yet. I love this particular photo of Louise Brooks, as you will see further on. I name the dolls as I see them if I don't know who they were. Funny thing is, I named her Lou Lou before I found out who she'd been.

More dolls waiting to be turned right side out and stuffed.

I started designing some pillows with vintage fabrics. I was greatly inspired by the wonderful pillows, I fell in love with, featured at "Dream in Cream" by artist Felicia Blair. You must check them out!

The back.

I put my name on everything I make now.

This is a photo of my Mom when she was just a wee girl. wasn't she adorable?



The hankie is left open at the top to create a pocket to slip some vintage goodies in.

Previously I made a bunch of little fabric collages that I will either add to pillows or totes. This one is "The Earth Laughs in Flowers".

"Dreams of Flight"

"Have Dress, will Party."
"Flights of Fancy"

"French Kiss is Bliss"

Another "Flights of Fancy"

"Sing, Dance, Play, be Naughty."

Another "Dreams of Flight"

Lots more work to do, gotta go.
