Picture 22

Ignore the title, this post has nothing to do with nonsense or balderdash, I just like the sound of the word. This post has everything to do with The Poppies, a virtual awards ceremony to celebrate the handmade community, over at Poppytalk. Click here to nominate your favourites. I have voted in some of the categories but I am not finished yet, it is so hard to choose! Here are my nominations so far, do add your voice to mine if you agree.

Margie Oomen of Resurrection Fern
Nicole Licht of Astulabee
Jessica Marquez of Miniature Rhino
Belinda Kemp of Gretchenmist
Julia Pott
Lizzie Stewart

and the nominations continue:

Mathyld of Encore Petite
Diane of Hibou Caillou Chou
Maya of Designs Maya Made
Maria of Psarokokalo
Regina of Every Eskimo
Melissa of Acts of Kindness

There is just enough time left to nominate if you haven’t already, quick, quick!

Here is a peek at a bit of embroidery work, I have some others along similar lines in (slow) progress, I thought they might be nice for Valentine gifts but I’m not sure if they will make it into the shop in time.

I can’t stop looking at Elisabeth Dunker’s blog Fine little Day. I think it is the light.


Papier Mache

Friday, November 20th, 2009

Papier Mache describes itself as “a very cute childrens magazine for anyone who wants to read it”. And, oh my goodness, is it ever cute! Have you read it yet? Some of my favourite artists are featured or contributing this month: Barbara Berrada, Poala Zakimi, Elisabeth Dunker, Donna Wilson, Atsuko Ishii, Herzensart, Le Train Fantome, Lemmikkiapina and I am in there somewhere too! Hop on over to Papier Mache, it is so beautifully produced and styled, you won’t be sorry you did.
