Maxine Sutton...

I'm really loving the work of Maxine Sutton at the moment.

Screen printing, applique, embroidery, mark making, and stitch mixed with abstract placement of household paraphernalia and bits and bobs, including the old favourite, birds, yum...

So... I thought I'd share the love!

Head over to her website for more fab work.

Feeling autumnal...

Well, after a couple of random hot days for October in the UK, 

I'm definitely starting to feel very autumnal... 

Its cold and windy outside and I'm transitioning from flip flop and flat pumps to boots! 

Thoughts of autumn have been aided by some beautiful imagery 

floating around blog land and over on pinterest, 

so I thought I'd post a few of my favourites to get you in the mood...

Just how beautiful do you need a colour palette to be for a new autumn collection, 

yum yum Rifle Paper co!
