We’ve been getting ready to go away so although I picked out my Folksy picks on Friday I didn’t get a chance to post. Luckily or unluckily Mother Nature has kept up my theme for me. Rain rain rain. Not my fondest thing when I’m trying to get loads of clothes dried. But luckily some […]
I wanted a gocco machine for ages and I got one two years ago. I think I’ve used it once. Mainly, in all fairness, because I don’t have access to an old-school carbon copier. But it’s still one of my favourite things and finding a way to use it more often is definitely up there […]
This week my Folksy Friday is over on the Folksy blog! So it’s a proper Folksy Friday this week. I found some lovely things that people were making from old books.

Ever since I started working freelance about a year and a half ago, I’ve been having an extended “you know, I think I used to be quite creative and artistic” moment. So I’ve gone on a long-term journey to rediscover my long hidden drawing and creating abilities. My first step on this relearning process was […]
It’s probably pretty obvious to tell that I’m just discovering the wide world of illustration and pattern and I’m sure if anyone other than my family accidentally falls upon this blog they’re probably thinking – yes we knew about that ages ago. But hey, I didn’t and there’s sure to be someone else out there […]
