Making something....

As it has been a very busy Christmas and I havent had time to post much on my blog I thought it would be easier to show what has kept me busy over the last few days of my Christmas break (also known as creative time in my home - I dont have time the rest of the year to focus on designing or creating new ranges)

Before I do I wanted to show you some beautiful Hokusai prints I got for Christmas which had been reproduced by the Victoria and Albert Museam.







 And then the making bit...a very exciting move into combining leather into my work in a new direction.
Over the next few days Ill post the progression at each stage.

A big box of leather

The leather came in four colours, rich tanned thick leather which smelt so beautiful.

Then I started to sew some template fabric I had designed.


Then to cut my leather

can you see what its turning out to be?
