My Creative Space

My Creative Space : Tortured fabric, shredded pieces of baby pants, dramatically scrunched up bits of pattern pieces next to the bin, one adult dress with "boob sacks" (quote Mr Melbournevintage), dust, piles of old jumpers and the smell of mothball... and I'm staying far away from it until this flu goes away. Which I hope will be soon as my toes are itching to get back into the swing of things.

These are some shots I took of my niece wearing one of my "ideas". Do you like the mix of old Tshirt and doily? I sure do! It didn't fit properly, but I like to think it's a start. The photography session was interesting. As in, making a one year old stand still is a matter of Einsteinian difficulty. Distraction with a piece of ceramic fruit worked for approximately 3 seconds. Until she flung the thing around the room and her aunty threw herself protectively over her camera.
Now, back to the drawing board stat.

More spaces and places here!

Cute concept, just don't stick her with a pin or she'll never EVER model again. I've lost many models that way, my children are scared for life. Love Posie
