I completely forgot about this but I was cleaning out my closet this morning and come across this book purse I made a few years ago! I still can't believe I made it in the first place but now I really want to made another one.

Anyone interested in a tutorial/pattern??

The parlour was a striking room even by the standards of Penhallick House. The Morris paper on the walls held a dense pattern of leaves and clusters of flowers in red and blue and yellow, woven through with thorny tendrils studded with tinier flowers in startling white. It filled the walls in wide panels between dark, carved wood that stretched from the floor and formed arching ribs where it met the ceiling.

All but the chains are done!

Other than some oopsies with the gluing of the cabochons, I'm really happy with how he's came out :D

I'll have them at the Devon Downtown Market tomorrow (Saturday, 10 August), and if any catch anyone's eye, send we a message and we can organise a sale through Etsy.

Fabric collage journal in progress!

I’ve been sewing my own journal covers and I love the process of putting together fabric collage. Silky fabric, Pom Pom trim, laces, stamped fabric and a vintage button were used in making the cover.

The elastic binding allows me to remove the pages so i can fill them with collage. The binding is held in place with grommets.

This journal will be about the cozy feeling of being at home. I’m going to fill it with black and white photos and altered maps that remind me of the wonderful feeling of coming home after a long journey. To the place where I belong.

THE DEFENCE OF GUENEVERE AND OTHER POEMS by William Morris. (London/New York/Bombay: Longmans, Green, 1900) Reprinted from the Kelmscott Press edition. Art binding.

Originally issued in 1858 when the author was just 24 years old. Morris first became enamored with all things medieval while a student of Oxford. This unattributed binding is a lovely example of the Arts and Crafts style.

it‘ll be your eighteenth birthday soon

we‘ll sing and dance and drink until our minds are empty

unsubstantial enough to make room for a little secret

our feelings only ever come alive when we’re concealed

looks from our friends slinking past our surreptitousness

they all know, it‘s unfeasible to hide

but we will disavow it until the end

your body craves mine

it‘s utterly impossible not to touch you

even if its just my eyes trying to find something to hold onto
