Which One Is Your Colour?


I finally listed the new Frog cushion covers on Etsy. And this time I added the colour samples on the listings for custom order, because I thought it might be easier for people to find what they want instead of me saying "I can print almost any colour of your choice" without samples.

Do You Like Frogs?





New design "Frog" has been done and I'll make some cushion covers out of those fabrics tomorrow.

Each frog was cut out by hand so they are all unique! I just hope there are many frog lovers out there... :)

New Dark Room (or just a box)



It's been a while since I've refurbished my studio and there's still a lot more to be done!

Today, I made a small new "dark/drying room" using a shelf. It is very small and just contains one screen to dry. I will see how it works tomorrow.

SHIN SHIN - From Her Honest Heart





The other day I found a beautiful blog which is written by one of the followers of this blog.
It's called SHIN SHIN and a pottery instructor Maki is introducing her lovely sketches, tools, works, creative process and daily life from England.
Please have a look and I'm sure it inspires you all !

It's Going To Be A Long Way (sometimes)



Yes, I am working on all those designs at the moment. I want to print them all onto fabric (well, of course not all at once though). I need to refine each design now to get what I want to see... I usually have so many ideas but don't finish each one, just stop drawing and move onto another idea. I sometimes think that I'm avoiding the further process, maybe because I know it might become a long journey...

New Range of Fabrics




I have listed some new fabrics on my Etsy shop today. Those are light/quilting weight fabrics and I have printed 15 colours the other day.

The colours are from my normal colour palette but now I'm looking forward to adding more with new design!

One Of My Happiest Moment



When I have a lot of remnants, I sort them out by colours and make some remnant packs for sale. I always enjoy thinking about combinations of colours :)

Colours on Canvas



I have recently started using new base fabric to print on. It is heavy weight cotton canvas and I love the texture!

Elephant Magazine



It's been a while since this art & visual Culture magazine called "Elephant issue 3" was published but here is the pages in which my work was featured.



AND it was really nice to be in this feature along with the popular designer maker Yuko of Patapri!

This feature represents 7 textile designers around the world. I really enjoyed reading other artists' history, background, idea, process, style and so on.

Special thanks to Anna, an editor of this Elephant magazine as well!

Playing Around With Real Things



I've done some experiment the other day with watercolours and then paper cutting.

When I try to develop my idea, doing it on computer doesn't really work for me, especially when the computer is so old and super-slow...!

Work In Progress







These are some "making-of" at different stages of preparation for printing new tea towels. The last photo shows sketches for more of new designs.

It was an organising day yesterday and I put those pretty ink bottles in order.
I need to work on something new...!

Love for Colour



I've been working on new silkscreen prints on fabric. They are quite small as A4 size it's easier to experiment colour schemes. Now available on my Etsy shop.

A Perfect Match

I was so excited when I received those pictures of cushions with my Mari fabrics!
One of my customers Elizabeth, is a talented crafter and you can see how creative she is to integrate my design into her lovely cushion covers.
I really hope that she would start selling her creations on Etsy or anywhere else :)

The photographs were taken by Marianne, a friend of Elizabeth and she sells her beautiful felt works here!

Beautiful and Quiet Assistant


I have been working on small prints on fabric recently for hanging on the wall and I thought of putting some flower when I take photographs for listing an item.
I am so lucky to have an avid gardener who happened to be my mother.
