Teaching teacups

This is one of my appliqued teacups which will be fastened to the walls of the play houses. The idea that the child learns different fastenings such as buttons, zips, etc. This one is fixed together with velcro and will be fixed to the walls with velcro. i aim to make them almost camoflaged into the walls so that the item is not immediately obvious. The cups and saucers, teapots, cakes etc will encourage pretend, imitative and imaginative play.

Valentine's Coffee

After moving to a new place in Penryn, I was feeling a little lost and not settled in, nowhere felt like home. A couple of days before Valentine's Day the morning sun created shadows onto my morning coffee. It made me smile...a great way to start the day.

I think this would make a lovely valentines card.

MAD Tea Party

Masters Art Design (MAD) Tea party was an event we held on the 16th February to help raise money to go to Milan or the MA Show. We baked cakes, bought in junk to sell and made £125.00 for the pot.

Four fancy cakes

I'm definately getting better at the cupcakes, here are 4 more i made to help to get to know my subject. I've now drawn these and produced samples using scraps of fabrics which i will scan in and post this week.
I went for High Tea at Charlotte's Tea House in Truro on Saturday to live the experience!
