wait for me

Wait for me
artist book - mixed media 10.5cm tall - combining machine embroidery stitch work with monoprint drawing, an original vintage photograph, text from old books, hand dyed fabric, painted papers....

No mosaic this week, my apologies, the mosaic-ing is taking a break as I'm so busy with my own work....

A very chilly start to February here - we woke to a frosting of snow and ice but the sun is out and the birds are busy too.... I hope things are ok where you are.

Tomorrow afternoon is my shop update. I'll share here a few more photos before then.

Many thanks for all your kind comments - now I'm going to write a list of things to finish and photograph today, and make some coffee to help with that list..... more soon x

Perfect. I love the chairs, and chair-over-text effect.

Hello Cathy, I nominated you for the sunshine blog award. I received the award and was meant to pass it on to ten of my favourite blogs. I decided to take the opportunity to 'delurk' on eight of the blogs I like but rarely or never comment on, as a chance to say hi and that I think that your blog is really nice!

Thanks for brightening up blogland!

I´m very fond of your artist books, of this one especially... - of how they´re composed, of how they tell a story, in a very unique (+ somehow slightly stubborn sort of) way...
