Here is a close-up of what the ruffle I’m weaving is supposed to look like. Who knows, I may vary it, but this is the plan. I’ve woven ½ of it so far—74”. I’m enjoying it and the patience nee…

“The role women play outwardly is interlocked with what they do behind closed doors—performing, even unconsciously, the ideals we are indoctrinated with and internalize.” How do culture, architecture and history intersect with women’s identities? At ARCO Madrid, which opens to the public this Wednesday, different answers come from the same place: Peru.
Happy New Year to all my followers, friends and family! I hope it is creative and fun. Last year was very very busy for me and culminated in a two month residency at Atauro Island which was an unforgettable experience which stole my heart. The coming year is going to be almost as busy, but I will actually be in Australia quite a lot more. I hope to be able to build an ablutions shed at some stage this year money and time permitting, as I will have to get a workman to help me do that- having no tools or building skills. I think I have worked out what to do about the skylights in my shed which make it incredibly hot in summer- too hot to work. But meanwhile I have decided to rewrite some of my Travellers' Blanket on-line class, as my stitching has progressed since I first wrote it and ideas have progressed as well. I will be offering this class starting 21 January and it goes for 4 lessons delivered fortnightly as a pdf file. The cost of the class is $75AUS.I set up a private Facebook group to share information and images and I keep the group opne for quite some time as stitching a blanket takes quite some time The idea of the travellers blankets grew from the notion that if you travelled in times past and you wanted to make a memory cloth to record what you had seen you would snaffle fragments of fabric to detail your journey. The idea has grown and the blanket I am working on at present is of sea urchins. Urchins studded the beach on my dawn walks on Atauro island and I love their shape and patterning- so in a sense it is a reminder of those walks and the feeling that watching the sun rise evoked. In a sense anything can be made into a travellers blanket.It is a visual form of story telling which dictates its own pace and reflections. I call them blankets because someone referred to one of my quilt art pieces as a blanket- so that was grist to the stone! Email me if you are interested in joining the class and I will send you further details , how to pay and a materials list. The images are of work/travellers blankets I worked on in 2017. The blanket above was exploring embroidery to encapsulate the idea of communities, in particular indigenous communities which are whole systems of information. The blue travellers blanket is quite large and is a journey through the years of printing and linocutting I have been doing since I began with textiles as my full time work. The piece below is inspired by the urchins encountered on morning walks on Atauro island. There is a lot of colonial knots on this piece!

Serena Garcia Dalla Venezia is a Chilean textile artist. Her art comprises of hundreds of brightly coloured fabric balls stitched together in organic shapes
Sunday morning I played around with new stones thinking they were going to be grey but perhaps because it is the bleak mid-winter the stones turned a warmer colour. This piece is inspired by Mark's paintings of stones disappearing under water. He is brilliant at that. For both of us scenes like this bring up whisperings of summers spent on beautiful Georgean Bay. For those of you in Toronto don't forget The Artist Project at the Better Living Centre February 21-14, 2019 Mark Berens will be at Booth 506. Strips of plant dyed fabrics soon to become rocks. By Sunday evening I was happily couching away. I have based the background onto an old blanket and it is like stitching butter. The one thing about this kind of stitching is it allows for mind wandering and as I stitched these delicious rusts and browns my mind whispered memories of my beautiful Rusty Pups They are dearly missed As are their antics and adventures. And then as I prepared this post A photo demanded to be noticed So much like my new stones. I have a teacher who always says the piece you start next should always be informed by the last piece you did. Perhaps this means my next piece will have to be seaweed in the colours of my Georgean Bay stones. But I already have soooo many new beginnings just started! But my mind is flowing with ideas on how to go about a seaweed piece. It is so easy to have many ideas isn't it The days just aren't long enough for their execution! I hope you have a day rich in creative ideas.

Oeps, een gevallen steek! Hier een aantal tips om het probleem zelf op te lossen én om het decoratief te gebruiken.
Slow stitched, textile art, mounted on canvas. Approx A5 in size. Made from fabric scraps, reclaimed silk and plant dyed and painted fabrics (using plants from my garden). Threads include vintage silks, hand dyed silks and charity shop finds. The piece also includes a gold acrylic paint piece (that was a fortuitous find). This was stitched in with scraps of material, most of which had been used to test out colours for another project. It has an organic feel and is reminiscent of bark. The texture is created through layering up of fabric and tiny simple stitches. The piece is backed with cotton wadding adding a three dimensional aspect to the piece. This has then been stitched on to cotton which is stretched over a canvas. Please note that the plant dyed fabrics may fade over time. it is best to display away from direct sunlight/light to ensure longevity of the piece. Postage in the UK is included within price and will be via recorded delivery. Will be packaged in a box with either paper or bubble wrap (normally reusing packing).
