Hand Sewn Illustrations now available!

Hello,

It has been ages since I posted on my little blog. Roll on Spring time is what I say! I can feel myself slowly coming out of  creative hybernation.

In the run up to Christmas and planning the stock I would concentrate on making, I found myself inspired to do some applique, and created lots of little one-off pieces with a focus on babushka characters. These proved very popular at the various fairs we attended as Fi & Me, especially at the Altrincham Twilight and at Stockport CP market which proved to be our all time favourite fairs (despite the chilly temperatures!) and I have a few left.




These whimsical designs are suitable for a variety of ages and the frames I use a plastic, which would be ideal for a child's bedroom.

They are available on etsy in my little fionaillustrates store, where I will be stocking original illustrations, prints and these appliques.

What is and isn't there...

hello hybrid
How amazing is this fella? The seals follow the fishing boats in every night at the harbour and we were lucky enough to see them one evening. The above picture is a sketch of the harbour (and me and C) from the same place we saw the seals. Perhaps one should feature in the background...I think I will add a little addition to the final illustration.

Illustration Friday Topic - Swell

Just to clarify, I haven't got a baby in my tummy! I just thought the premise of this picture is cute, fits this weeks IF topic, and could possibly be a children's book (for those soon to be siblings). I have taken 'swell' to mean getting big, or growing larger so I chose this picture that I did ages ago. A few of the lovely ladies I met through aquanatal when I was pregnant 3 years ago are now having their second babies so this is inspired by them.
