Creative Space: New things

It feels like a million new things have happened this week...

On the weekend I finished putting together a new book bag prototype, made 

from last week's new fabric. So I was thinking about book bags + printing up some 

new lining and I started experimenting with the background block to another design 

of mine from last year. I changed it a bit (two dots) and I printed by lining up the pattern...

I rather like it. In fact, I don't think I'll be using it as a lining... I think it needs more

work; another layer perhaps - but not like the old pattern, something softer. I may

have tickets on myself* here but it looks a bit Mina Perhonen to me! :)

A funny thing my eyes kept falling on while I was printing... a part of an ad on the 

newspaper I was using as table protection... "A well fitted suit is a dream of every 

man and a woman..." What? Only one woman?? ;)

Something else I put together this week... thank you cards to include with purchases from 

my Etsy store. I made use of the 'flooded' tea towel, cutting it up and sewing the panels

on card. By the way, I have two new tea towels in my Etsy store now :)

Hope you've had a fabulously creative week? You can see more spaces here.


UPDATE: You can also have a peek at all the Creative Spaces on Instagram now.

*to have tickets on yourself... Be conceited, have a high opinion of yourself—

‘He’s got tickets on himself if he thinks I’ll go out with him’.
