Ok, so I didn't whip this up on the sewing machine today. It was a couple of weeks ago but, as I haven't done a blog for a while, I thought I should cram in a few of the things I have been working on.
This is an image of a cushion I made from silk fabric based on the painting of Lola, the Spanish dancer, by Manet. I am an absolute fan of Manet. I love his still lives and his gorgeous paintings that capture the heart of the society of his time and the soul of people, such as those depicted in The Conservatory and The Balcony.

This weekend I have been working on designs from photos I took while walking the coastal walk from Kurnell to Cronulla. Updated design idea below. Developing over the months!
