Today I have been mostly applying transfers

3 XL plates - 36 cm diameter

Still have to paint gold lustre on the rims and fire.

Embroidered tablecloth by Janet Haigh

Look at this amazing tablecloth!

Janet Haigh embroidered it for my show at Aberystwyth Arts Centre next month…

I just can’t get over the detail in the flowers – they look just like the actual transfer!

Omg she’s good with that needle- thank you SO much Janet

The August Break

I’m  really excited about taking part in ‘The August Break’ with Susannah Conway and a load of other bloggers.

Posting a daily photograph on my blog during August is a lovely way to document a month.

I will be in Denmark for the first 2 weeks , so watch out for some ‘Danish delights’…

Have to admit that right now I’m getting a bit of ‘rage’ with ‘the old badge and code’ malaky…but I’m sure I will get it sorted out before August 1st

But I have been proper clever though and somehow(!) managed to link the blog to facebook and now I can also magically post photos straight from my iPhone via email  – oooh technology – you have to love it!

Countdown to holiday

Holiday minus 11 days- cant wait !

I need a holiday!

You know you need a holiday when pictures of tranquil settings jump out from the page , making you wish you were ‘there’ and not ‘here’…

Hmmmm how I long to lounge about in this lovely blue summerhouse on a lazy & warm summers day, with a book and a nice cup of tea- pure bliss!

I’m not too sure its quite BIG enough to actually live in- but I really want one …and a big old garden to put it in- lovely!
