Down on the farm

Another of my textile designs for Lorraine Lea Linen is 'Down on the Farm', designed especially for boys who love all things rural. 

And yes - there are plenty of tractors featured!

Lorraine Lea Linen is sold throughout Australia and New Zealand. You can visit their website here.

Sweet Acres Farm

 'Sweet Acres Farm' is a new bed linen design for girls, available exclusively from Lorraine Lea Linen.

The butterfly collector

I'm putting my portfolio together at the moment and have realised that I must be just a little bit obsessed about butterflies.....

And this is just a small selection!

Winter blooms and berries

Spotted this weekend at the Royal Botanical Gardens, Melbourne.

Off and painting

I have finally sorted out my studio (aka tiny spare bedroom) into a work space so am now looking forward to getting stuck into some fun painting and drawing textile design projects. I think this computer may have to be re-located to another room - I am spending far too much time in blog land!

A trip to the market

 There were so many wonderful sights and smells at the Phuket Town fresh food market. Please don't quiz me on the names of quite a few of these fruit and vegetables though!

The beautiful shop-houses of Phuket Town

I loved these 19th century Chinese merchant shop houses in Phuket Town. Especially the street packed with fabric and haberdashery shops. Beautiful!
