Room with a view.

Playing around with an old camera that was buried in a box in a dusty corner of the garage.

Have seen some beautiful photo's on ETSY that combine the use of an old camera with a digital camera.

My attempts at this technique were dodgy at best, electricians tape kept peeling away from my handmade light shield! Not sure if the baking paper was an effective view finder either. Still, I might give it another go sometime after I've improved the rig.

Hand loomed.

Autumn time and I'm feeling earthy. Have just planted a dozen tulip bulbs and a sea of sweet peas.

The purses are slowly evolving and stocks are gradually growing. The past month or so has seen me trying to be resourceful without a car. Funny how that transpires into you trawling the internet for fabrics, rather than through your fav fabric shops.

As it turns out, i have found some stunning hand loomed hemp. The natural striations of the threads along with the subtle colour result in a very special little find. This ancient fibre still has a place in this crazy mixed up modern world we live in. Hopefully I can do it some justice with the Singer.
