Toby came to look at the show before we left Stamford. The sun was in just the right position to give some great shadowplay so I took some (more) pics of the work in situ. Really happy with how this has worked out. Thanks for putting on this show!

It was and my turn to steward the ‘Growth’ exhibition today. We shared stories of our work and that of others, for me the story is where the art resides. As you can see it becomes a performance too!

Having just shared a story about the difference using real photographers make for your work, I am sharing some images taken with my phone! Awkward..!
This lace has been on the backburner for some years. I love the mixture of elements, inspired as it is by some art nouveau designs in the .
This is a lacelet. Should I list it for sale or is it too big? It’s currently 50mm across which is pretty wide for my lace. It’s 200mm long but can button tighter on smaller wrists.

Remember the denim embroidered collar I shared a week or so back? Well he’s almost finished… just got the rest of the text picot to apply.
I decided to bind the raw edge of the neckline with lace, a length of deadstock leavers lace donated to by Paul Smith. I’ve used it like a binding along the neckline and also as a carrier for the text. I’ll share photos of that process later.
I’m happy with the result, just got the last collar to do. Any ideas what that one might be? I’ve probably already mentioned it, can’t remember!
