I've been Blogged

I've been blogged via etsy with my Pale Knight poets top by My Name is Michael so thank you to her.
Its a first via etsy and its a lovely feeling. That is such a popular piece for collection that I'm tempted to experiment with the style and theme.

Halloween09 comp and exhibition

I've decided on a hat for the craftjuice listing. Its going to be black with orange fabric and a black lace pleated trim for starters and a choice of pumpkins or a little point on the top.


I woke up this morning with all my plans for the day in a neat order. As to be expected non of them worked out and I was sat working out a cable when I was suddenly struck with the rememberence of an exhibition I will be taking part in starting on Friday!. I have a couple of pieces already that I want to show and I'm working on a theme of literature and the muse/inspiration.
One piece is to be 'Pale Knight' my favourite display piece and will be in the lit part as poetry. Another is to be 'The Green Faerie' knitted in coast its a wonderful floaty cardigan wrap that will take the part of the Muse and Inspiration. Another part is the hat that I am working on at the moment and will be a red and white snood hat in the Lit catagory with the inspiration from Dr Seuss. No 3 is to be Briar Rose art neckpiece which will be an icord decorated in mixed media roses.

Like most people I know I can hardly wait for the new Alice in Wonderland a la Tim Burton and Johnny Depp. I am in shivers of aniticipation with the mix of Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman,Christopher Lee and Stephen Fry all in one movie, not to mention Babs Windsor and Frances de la Tour making it a bit like heaven.
I'm thinking No:5 has to have an Alice theme. Cabled blue fingerless gloves maybe
