A few more inspiring images

Again, from Mark Hearld's flat. The World of Interiors, November, 2007.

"Hearld's more-is-more approach to interior design reflects a long-standing interest in house full of collections of things."





I love it all.

"Hearld is adamant he is 'extraordinarily untidy', and rarely cleans, despite the moteless surfaces. 'Occasionally, when things are really getting out of hand, my dad comes to my assistance, but generally I think: Why clean when you could be doing something creative? I am very suspicious of anyone washing their car on a Sunday afternoon'."

Inspiration from The World of Interiors

The World of Interiors magazine, November 2007.

This magazine never ceases to inspire me. It also makes me green with envy. From their November issue, a peek inside artist and designer Mark Hearld's Yorkshire flat. I want to live here.

Rabbits and Eggs

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 little rabbits in a row.

Easter has been and gone. Here are five rabbits I whipped up pre Easter especially for Craft Victoria. Each long-eared rabbit came with a small felt egg on ribbon.

I hope they found good homes.



I have been busily painting in the studio and will have more to show you very soon. More rabbits, more stuffed ones and more inspiring crafty links.

New stuffies are here

Two new rabbit stuffies made in time for Easter. Photographed upstairs at Imp with books from downstairs.



Please meet Long-eared Eleanor, a Thelma’s one of a kind felt and fabric stuffie, lovingly handmade especially for hammer & daisy. A rabbit with bags of personality, she would greatly love to find a new cosy den to call her very own. Find her here.




Please meet Ruby round nose, a Thelma’s one of a kind felt and fabric stuffie, handmade especially for hammer & daisy. A rabbit full of charm, she would greatly love to find a new cosy place to live. Find her here.

All things sewn.

More rabbits and stuffies to come. Soon.
