Midnight Garden-Canvas only

Midnight Garden-Canvas only

Red hot colour and big heavy dahlia heads, growing up with daisy and lobelia. When I can't sleep at night I think about my garden at the bach. I name all the plants I can think of, and plan what I'm going to plant next. So much more colourful than counting sheep!

Wind Dancer

We had a really windy day here in Wellington in January, (funny-that) and I took Red the dog for a walk. Usually the wind makes me a bit grumpy - but on this particular day I found it quite exhilarating. I was moving with the wind, rather than fighting it - I loved it.

The seaweed wobbled
just like my hair

No Worries

This is my first design that shows a couple together as equal characters! I'm not sure what Freud would make of this missing component for so many years, and it's sudden appearance. The colours are a bit softer than my usual palette. This would be a great gift for the parents! Wedding anniversaries or retirement celebrations.

The Incredible Woman

OK, it's time to '~fess up! A number of friends are doing the family thing '" buying houses, remembering to have children, and even managing long term relationships.

Congratulations '" I couldn't do it

$44.95 incl. GST

Girl Talk

This is a fresh take on the deleted design "Gossip" We have asked to create a design that could be used for a bunch of friends sitting doing stitching! I figured that with this design, you could add personal bits, like something to stitch, a glass of wine etc...

the curves and the angles
of the passing parade.

All Things Kiwi

This design contains a few of what I see as the typical New Zealand icons. A sheep; a black shearers singlet; Hokey Pokey icecream; a chocolate fish; a pair of jandals for summer wear; the pukeko or swamp hen; an orange roughy; the cabbage or Ti tree (which looks like something out of a Dr Suess book); the Kiwifruit; and of course, the Kiwi. The stars represent the Southern Cross constellation. And the clouds represent the Maori name for New Zealand (Aotaearoa - Land of the Long White Cloud).

Maybe it is all about Spring, or maybe it's more of a maturing thing '" not that anyone would know!

Fairy stories all have an element of truth in them - and this one is no exception. The Princess couldn't believe the extraordinary measures the Queen took to keep her away.

The Lazy Husband

The Lazy Husband

"Where could he be?
asleep up a tree?
all I ask, is that the lawns be mowed
and just to share a little of the load

I am sure I wouldn't be so grey, and weathered if I could do that too!!....but I just feel too quilty

Loose - I know, but it is just a free thing, and it made me smile.

Cafe Girls

We all had a laugh at this design! One title we thought of was "Speech Bubbles". And another idea we had was for a competition whereby people had to tell us what the conversation was about - the most imaginative won! Needless to say, the conversation degenerated from that point on until we were all on the floor in hysterics.

$44.95 incl. GST

Bikini Freedom

Our busty bather is hoola hooping with joy! She has decided NOT to be worried about what other people might think. The onlookers applaud. It's fun to do with plenty of colour changes and will make an excellent companion for our long standing "Bathing Beauties".

$44.95 incl. GST

Bathing Beauties

This design was inspired by a beauty contest where votes were made by donation. Whoever collected the most money won. When I was little, I thought whoever was the biggest won.
