They'll fulfil our dreams and we'll be free...

I'm back on Mumford again :) (This time it's the song Not With Haste)
 
After I eventually stop listening to them in the mornings and get to college I have been doing a fair bit of work, we've started actually printing now which is quite exciting. I'e spent the last few days dyeing fabric to find which to use (I decided on silk for a change) and experimenting...

 (the fabrics are cotton, silk, devore satin, polyester voile for each colour)

The fishes aren't finished yet, Dory needs some yellow and they both need sewing together but it's all getting quite exciting. I've ordered some fish hooks to hang them from cos I think I might make them into a mobile...

Give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light...

Have not stopped listening to Mumford and Sons for the last few weeks and it's becoming my little theme tune to my under the sea stuff. (Title is taken from their song 'Ghosts That We Knew')
It's helped me with these last few pages...

(I dont like this mermaid as much as the other one... I think it's cos the colour of the sea is nicer on the one I did before and because she's a bit funny looking in the picture. She looks better in real life, honest :) )

Dandelion Clocks

I made this a while ago - well a few weeks - for a birthday and have been so busy getting back to college I haven't put it up! I've been trying to keep busy this weekend too as one of my friends has the new Mumford and Sons CD and mine hasn't arrived yet and I need to take my mind off it so I'm not too jealous.
Anyway, this was a birthday present for another fan of the amazing Mr Jez Lowe and the words are from one of his songs called Dandelion Clocks...



'Watching the seasons go, and breezes blow, blow away the dandelion clocks'
