#bestdecision is today’s prompt for #marchmeetthemaker2022 - tough one. When it comes to my sanity saving creative life, I would have to say my best decision was tea bowls. They are not “hot” sellers. I know most of you would rather I make mugs (big thank you to my tea bowl fans out there! 💜💜💜) But I literally dream of making tea bowls. The way they fit in the shape of my hand to form them, the relaxed wave of the rim, even the way the foot is a handle in a tea ceremony so it needs a gentle curve to hold. Every little part has a purpose and requires attention, right down to the exact angle of the drip line to control the glaze movement. I could not make two the same if I tried. Someday I will do another One Hundred Tea Bowls project. That was a great experience. #lifegoals . . . #marchmeetthemaker #lifeofapotter #ceramiclife #pottery #ceramics #keramik #teabowls #yunomi #crystallineglaze #makersofinstagram #claytalk #clayartsutah #etsyshop #etsy #texture #claylove #madeinaskutt #utahartist #artofinstagram #ceramicdesign #glazeporn #lithologyceramicart https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca2S1ngFdt8/?utm_medium=tumblr

Day 4 of #MeetTheMaker is 3 things. Here are the three things that make up Marg Dier Embroidery. On the left my writing. I loved writing my book and am in the process of planning another one on advanced thread painting. On the right my thread painting art work, mostly birds but I have lichen and a wild rose on the go currently. At the bottom my embroidered jewellery which I sell in my Etsy shop. More than enough to keep me busy. . . . #marchmeetthemaker2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/Carh-_EN92L/?utm_medium=tumblr

Day 7 of #marchmeetthemaker2022. Todays prompt is “favourite” so I thought I’d share my most favourite recent make. This is a little underwater scene I painted in my @pithsupply sketchbook (very tolerant to slapping down a lot of paint!) _ I’ve been revisiting some old ideas lately and looking at them with a new perspective. This one comes from a tiny story I wrote about a man and his dream of having an underwater restaurant 🐟 _ #carveouttimeforart #sketchbookdrawing #sketchbookpage #illustrationart #illustrationartists #drawdaily #sketchbook #illustratorsofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #createeveryday #creativityeveryday #illustration_best #dailydoodle #dailyillustration #sketchbookskool #makearteveryday #everydayinspiration #pithsupply #underwater #oceanfloor #underthesea #marchmeetthemaker (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CazXoNOKFl4/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today's #MarchMeetTheMaker prompt is Hands at Work. This is a poster the fabulous @calyx.design made for me ages ago. I sent him a ton of photos my partner took while I worked and he drew these clear and awesome versions! I have this and some partially-bound demo books at my booth when I vend. ~°~ Image description: a poster that says "how to bind a book that rocks!" across the top and then has three columns of four graphics that are (most of) the steps I use to bind my blank books. There's text with each graphic to explain what it is. It's all in a brownish gray, goldenrod, and cream. ~°~ #bookbinding #bookarts #marchmeetthemaker2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca6VsFjr40G/?utm_medium=tumblr

March Meet The Maker #9 Hands at work I remember this was one of the prompts from the first year I did March Meet The Maker! I also remember it is rather difficult to take a photo of one’s own hands! 😂 Therefore I am going to cheat and re-use this shot that I used the first time! I was pretty pleased with it so why not eh? 😉 In the photo I’m attaching a slide tube clasp to one of my bead loomed nautical cuffs. It’s called ‘Loom Ahoy’ and can be purchased from my Folksy shop ⚓️⛵️⛴🚢 #LakelandLoom #beadlooming #allthingsloomage #looming #beadloom #handsatwork #workinghands #lakeland #loom #loomingloominglooming #marchmeetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2022 #finishingloomwork #joannehawker #thelakedistrict #lovethelakes #lakedistrict #nothwestuk #creativebusiness #justacard #thedesigntrust #anticopyingindesign #handmadehour #tresstle #lakelandarts #folksyhq #folksylocalnorthwest #folksylocal #designermaker (at Cumbria) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca5ILehqJWO/?utm_medium=tumblr

#MarchMeetTheMaker Day 31: Looking Forward The last day of the #marchmeetthemaker challenge on Instagram, thanks to @joannehawker for setting the challenge prompts. I am Looking forward to all the challenges life has thrown at me in the last five years to be coming to a close, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel but that tunnel sure is long! New challenges approach this year, one being my Husband is retiring from work and I am not sure if that is going to be helpful or a hindrance, we'll see😆 I look forward to trying out more new crafts, the card in the picture is one I made at our local craft club meeting last night. I look forward to craft fairs & events being the norm again and interacting face to face with customers instead of on a keyboard coping with predictive textile (text😂) I think I am looking forward to looking forward, at the moment anyway, so Thanks to @joannehawker and all the other new makers I have (virtually) met this year and hopefully see you all again next March! #marchmeetthemakerday31 #marchmeetthemaker2022 #zoknitandsew #cornishcrafters #smallcornishbusiness #smallbusinesswoman #craftersofinstagram #craftersinbusiness #handmadecards https://www.instagram.com/p/CbxF5rwMIOk/?utm_medium=tumblr

#favorite is the prompt for #marchmeetthemaker2022 today. I bet you could all guess my answer is drips. I can coax them into being, but I can’t force them to happen. I have to trust 2160 degrees f + gravity to work their magic. Every one is a gift. (Okay, sometimes they are a PITA, but usually 🎁) . . #drips #glazes #glazeporn #pottery #ceramic #keramik #cone6 #etsymudteam #claytalk #makers #handmade #handbuiltpottery #red #potteryofinstagram #potteryaddict #teabowl #cup #lithologyceramicart https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca04r4ire8I/?utm_medium=tumblr

It's Day 29 of #MarchMeetTheMaker and today is NEW vs OLD 👵👀 I thought I'd use this little video I made a while ago for an SBS entry; I don't really do videos, but I had so much fun making this and seeing how far I've come... I am my own worst critic and it's a real struggle to see work from an outsiders perspective 😅 This little vid peoject really helped! Enjoy 😉😂🖤 www.embRUDEry.com 🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵🆕️👵 #MarchMeetTheMaker2022 #newvideo #howitstartedvshowitsgoing #MHHSBD #QueenOf #FabricArt #embroiderersofinstagram #HorrorCommunity #MutantFam #HorrorArt #artistsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CbtAdKdDvHP/?utm_medium=tumblr

A belated day 4 for #MarchMeetTheMaker2022 Friday’s prompt was “3 things…” There are soo many trios I could share but let’s go with my 3 favourite things to forage for on a woodland walk 🌲 acorns, pinecones, and mushrooms! 🍄 At the end of last year, I was really happy to be able to go back to the Edinburgh Printmakers and start screen printing again. This little mushroom print is one of the prints I worked on. I think I’d like to try some different colours and maybe add some more spots when I try it again (I added some extra spots afterwards on procreate 😉) . . . . . . #printmaking #screenprinting #fantasticfungi #marchmeetthemaker #printmakersofig #mushrooms #createeveryday #carveouttimeforart #artistsoninstagram #printmakersofinstagram #makersgonnamake #makesomething #edinburghprintmakers (at Edinburgh Printmakers) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaxQW9PKk7H/?utm_medium=tumblr

Today's #MarchMeetTheMaker prompt is Favorite, so here's one of my favorite repair projects! This was a family's daily-use copy of the Guru Granth Sahib. It was my first massive book, and so pretty. The paper was so so so good, soft and thick, but the binding was thin and fell apart. I hadn't learned all the wisdom @saveyourbooks imparted to me working on big Bibles, but I did pretty well I think. Check out my website for more photos, the link to the post is in the sidebar. ~°~ Image description: two photos, a before-and-after of a large, wide book open to the middle. In the first photo the spine of the book is thoroughly broken, all the signatures are loose. In the second, it's mended and looks great if I do say so myself. ~°~ #bookbinding #bookrepair #marchmeetthemaker2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca1GOTbrIPq/?utm_medium=tumblr

😄 Hello 💕 Day 29: New vs old... 💕Here are two portraits of women with pink hair painted by me decades apart! The Modogliani-esq portrait on the left (self-portrait, yes I had a pink fringe then) was painted when I was at school. The painting on the right is one of two portraits celebrating digital connection in Covid times and features the beautiful Ruby @biskeebrisht 💕 It is part of my 'Finding the Good' project supported by @arts_council_iom 💕 I hope you have a good evening & I'll see you tomorrow for more #marchmeetthemaker2022 - not long until it's finished! 💕💫💕💫💕💫💕💫💕💫💕 Thank you @joannehawker 💕 [Image Description: Two portrait paintings featuring women with pink hair.] . . . . . . . . #marchmeetthemaker #meettheartist #meetthemaker #beth_louella_art #kahlo #pocart #bipocartist #creativewomen #womenartists #paint #positivevibes #behindthescenes #peopleart #americanindian #colourfulart #artvsartist #pattern #portraits #pink #ukartist #manxartist #nativeamerican #popart #modigliani #positivity #artistsofinstagram #contemporaryart #fineart #create (at United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbsyTjws2ll/?utm_medium=tumblr

#MarchMeetTheMaker Day 29: New v Old On the left you have new'ish photos and on the right from 2015 when I first started out. I am still making a lot of the same products although there have been a few tweaks here and there but displaying my products for photos have improved I think. The old bedsheet over the sofa has gone😆, it has been replaced by white foamboards. My table display still needs work but I have a gazebo and more stands and display shelves than when I started (more stock and lines too!) #marchmeetthemakerday29 #marchmeetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2022 @joannehawker #cornishcrafters #smallsewingbusiness #smallcornishbusiness #smallbusinessuk #smallbusinesswoman https://www.instagram.com/p/CbrxW90MSrl/?utm_medium=tumblr
