Too KYUUTO!


A couple of Fridays ago I learnt how to crochet the head of an Amirugumi animal! I am so happy because it has been on my 'To Do' list for well...time!

It is very basic and yet to be given eyes but it is a start, and will hopefully lead on to a new section of produce that we can sell on the Fi & Me shop.

I was taught by the lovely (and very patient) Sue Diskin who is currently teaching at HART every friday morning. Sue is a textile artist and painter, specialising in crochet in particular but she has a plethora of other arts and craftsy skills up her beautifully crocheted sleeves!

Rhino Mania

Does my bum look big in this?! Here's a sneak preview of the rhino that I was commissioned to paint for Wild in Art's Rhino Mania. It will be part of a procession of rhino's that will be in Chester this summer. The event is organised by Chester Performs and you can find out more on the website www.rhinomania.co.uk. You can also join the facebook group for rhino mania to get updates of how the projects progressing. It's for a 2 really good causes for chester zoo and rhino conservation so your support would be briliant. If you're feeling flush you can even bid to buy one in September! My rhino is called 'The Wallower.' I'm looking forward to finding out who has sponsored her and where she will be placed. Images of the completed rhino to come so keep visiting my blog... www.rhinomania.co.uk http://www.rhinomania.co.uk/gallery/rhinos To see the final result and the steps I took to paint my rhino visit www.cargocollective.com/fionameakinillustrations
