Last weeks sewing sessions with @newcastlefineart students ❤️✂️ looking at art through a fashion and textile lens and exploring techniques they could adapt to their own practice! Fancy learning how to sew? There’s still a couple of tickets left on my ‘Introduction to Machine Sewing’ class’! Just head over to my Facebook events for more details ❤️✌️ My recent art piece that exhibited at @mcrcontemporary has just been delivered to an amazing young teen 💖💫 here is some WIP of feminist journalist and activist ‘Gloria Steinem’ who featured in the piece... . “Without leaps of imagination, or dreaming, we lose the excitement of possibilities. Dreaming, after all, is a form of planning.” Last week I attended my (long overdue) first @lwd_ncl event, which featured an amazing panel of female business owners and freelancers 💫💫💫 everyone has their own personal experiences to share, and I love hearing others creative journeys...what inspired them? How did they get started? How does their typical day look? So great to catch up with @kimberley_tiska @chloerodham and to meet @mmpegg of @northern_correspondent 💕 what a great night to be in a room full of women talking openly and lifting each other up 🙌🙌🙌 Thank you to everyone who visited @mcrcontemporary this weekend! Hope you’ve all had a good one, here is my latest artwork ‘Women for a new era (revisited)’ exhibiting with @vanegallery, which was alongside @ampersand_inventions @narbiprice @ben_applegarth @feliksculpa @jockmooney and Nancy Isherwood 💙 also pictured is @feliksculpa screen printed Warhol wallpaper, a separate artwork in itself, but gives a whole new context in relation to cultural icons in modern history! Some lovely feedback on this beauty 🌸💕 plenty of compliments guaranteed whilst wearing 😂👍 just got a couple more sweaters prepped for embroidery/embellishment, inky jet black for something smart and stylish, or neutral charcoal for a softer aesthetic 💕 bespoke gifts that are personalised for the wearer are far more sentimental and tend to be held onto for a lot longer than mass produced garments and accessories. If you’re thinking ahead for Christmas, I offer embroidery and embellishment personalisation tailored to the individual, including working onto existing garments 💫💫💫 Because attention to detail doesn’t stop at the garment! Carefully wrapped in acid-free recycled tissue paper, before being placed in a luxury gift box with an embroidery care card and hand written note 💕 the perfect gift to yourself or a loved one! A little #WIP of Gloria Steinem for a colourful quartet of trailblazing women I’ve recently completed for @mcrcontemporary 💪✂️📞 really loving this on-trend combo of mustard, rose and navy 💛
