New Flyer...

SO, I've just finished designing a new flyer ready for The Vintage Village Fair in Stockport on Sunday 10th October and also for the opening of my new rented shop in Salford :) (thanks to my boyfriends mum for so kindly letting it to me rent free for now!) I'm a lucky girl... 

Front View

Back View

It's quite exciting as I'll be unleashing my creative and collective bits and pieces onto the world (well Manchester!). It'll be nice to get some feedback... 

I've gone for plain but intriguing for the front. It's a nice pretty print and all the necessary information is on the reverse, with some hand written and drawn elements for a more personal feel. I was aiming to mirror the quality and presentation of my work in this flyer. I hope I've been successful... 

Also bought some gorgeous new chairs to up-holster for my website. I bought a beautiful old Victorian 

rocking chair to cover in one of my prints! 

HOT

I'll be sure to upload the finished product - which will of course be available to buy!

I Wish You Were a Beer 

Ok... hello! I'm new to blogging so I'm going to take this slow. So i thought I'd start my first ever blog entry with one of my favorite designs to date... This was a print that I produced over a year ago. It was initially designed for screen printing and I eventually re-upholstered a stool with this design. I just think "I wish you were a beer" is so honest. I often wish these weird and wonderful things... and how cute is that beer head! YUMMY! 

Although beer head is one of my favorites I feel I've come a long way from these sweet an naives... My mind and technique have both matured and I have really felt at home with my craft. The transition from fashion design to Textiles during university was difficult but life changing. I have always been a Textiler at heart - although my love for fashion will never die. Here are a few images from my final collection: *all images are copyright
