A friend bought me some really nice fabric, and that starting me sewing some things at a go. I use an old manual pedal sewing machine - it's a little finnicky, but I love using it. I also found some nice fabrics from Ikea - here are some of things I made :) Sashes for waist, neck or bag. Foldable bird bag. Flamingo pyjama shorts! My first attempt at making a purse with a metal frame. It was rather difficult :( and I overcrimped the metal frame, leaving a gap when it closes. Not great for coins. I shall try to make the next purse better! :) Here's another bag - in the same print as the purse and shorts!
Acrylic on canvas. 20"x25" Inspired by the Hermes scarf.
On exhibition at Curious TeePee at *scape as part of the "Idolism" show from 5 to 22 May 2011, together with wonderful artists and illustrators from OIC! :)
