I really like this one

Simply send me around 50 words, personal to you or a loved one.
Tell me which word you want in the middle (if any), which words you'd like in black, which ones are important words and what colour shades you would like.
The frames are 50cms x 50cms and have a light cream mount. The actual size of the art inside the mount, measures 27cms x 27cms.
I am happy to post to the UK and the rest of the world. The art will be packaged personally and carefully to protect it.

Okay this made me go WOW

Here is a bit about her, Jenny says:
"My interest in textiles began in childhood, and has continued into my adult life. I currently create pieces fusing together felt, fabric and thread together with hand and machine stitching/embroidery. I enjoy the journey that is being taking when creating a piece and experimenting. My work progresses over time and takes new direction supported by new techniques and experimentation.
My stall contains recent work based on the design of single stem flowers that stand proud in a flower bed. I often start with only a visual representation in my head thus allowing the medium to shape the piece. As a result of this and the techniques used, no two pieces can be the same. Colours can combine in a piece from yellows to pink, reds to pinks and purples to blues. My pieces are presented in glazed box frames although the glass can be removed upon request. Custom orders are very welcome.
Thank you for looking at my stall, if you have any questions, or comments please send me a message."

I love this .....

This piece is inspired by the single upright tall flowers that stand proud in my mother’s cottage garden. The flowers are in a large bed, which has a backdrop of flowers and foliage. The ground and low level planting also displays a mass of colour from various flowers.
Free machine embroidery fuses together and with felt and fabric three flowers are created, laid on a background of spring inspired pattern fabrics, quilting and free embroidery. The large flowers are shaped and stand proud in the frame. Only £30!!

And Love this one too.....

Introducing the Protector.

Here it is... Finished... Completed


The Angel Festival has started and will finish on the 25th Sept 2011.
Protector stands about 6ft high and the width is just under 6ft. In other words the gazebo is 2.5meters square and it fills the space.

New Make CUPCAKES!!!!!

As I have recently been without my laptop,
I have had alot of time on my hands.
So got the glass and had a play, Here is the result!

I am going to mount them on to canvas so they can be hung on the wall.

Hang Your Heart

New Hanging Hearts.
First we have a double deep red transparent fused glass hanging heart. Attaching the two was quite difficult but I am very happy how they have turned out.

Next big blue and then small sweet pink and lastly a solid sweet pink which is textured and has small holes making it very organic.

These would make a perfect gift for the one you love, hang your heart in their window.

Before and After firing AFTER

Here they are after the firing.
I am really pleased how they have come out, bright and funky.
