ilikelichenblog: March 2009
http://ilikelichenblog.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Musings on nature, soul and craft. Saturday, 28 March 2009. Tastukaeru is Kate who lives in Scotland. I was drawn to her work by her luscious embroidery. Her titles bring the pieces alive, hinting at her unique relationship to the natural world giving us an insight how her craft is truly a meditation in an elemental exploration of colours and textures. Many thanks Kate and check out the bottom of the interview for blog, Etsy, Photographic and musical links. Do you ever get obsessed? I find music to be th...

ilikelichenblog: Giveaway (ring not dog)
http://ilikelichenblog.blogspot.com/2009/04/blog-giveaway_30.html
Musings on nature, soul and craft. Thursday, 30 April 2009. Giveaway (ring not dog). Originally uploaded by buddha seed. Somehow i've been caught in this strange twilight of 'grrr' all week, much like the snarl of my Jack Russell when anyone dangles a hand anywhere near her. Dan called this morning just as I was getting up, and him heading to bed (in the states) and I could hear coyotes howling their strange and eerie song in the background. Whether domisticated or wild - dogs aye make me smile. Not want...

http://ilikelichenblog.blogspot.com/2009/04/ring-for-every-occasion.html
Musings on nature, soul and craft. Saturday, 18 April 2009. A ring for every occasion. Got my ‘handfasting/enagaement/wedding’ ring in the post yesterday – I absolutely love it! The design is inspired by the seed pod of the tree peony, which dries black and opens to show it’s seeds. It's made by Sophie of Duck Duck Goose Stuff – check her out on Etsy http:/ www.duckduckgoosestuff.etsy.com. Thanks Lesley for the hand modelling! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

ilikelichenblog: October 2008
http://ilikelichenblog.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Musings on nature, soul and craft. Wednesday, 15 October 2008. Prayer flags of the heart. Pieces of hand dyed pre-felt are hung out over the bath to dry like brightly coloured prayer flags. Each one the hue of autumn leaves shining in their brilliance before returning to the earth, their nutrients allowing new life to bloom. It is only in the language of nature can I make sense of my brother's death. That spark of eternal energy, that piece of 'god' which resides inside each of us where is it? View my co...

ilikelichenblog: Conversation with Aileen Clarke
http://ilikelichenblog.blogspot.com/2009/05/conversation-with-aileen-clarke.html
Musings on nature, soul and craft. Friday, 1 May 2009. Conversation with Aileen Clarke. I came across Aileen's work on Flickr and was quickly sucked into her luscious coloured Scottish Landscapes. Her Croft scenes reminded me of staying in bothy's in wild and beautiful landscapes and of camping by the shore under moonlit skies. Enjoy some musings with Aileen over virtual coffee. What inspires you, that you couldn’t you live without? Being surrounded by trees and greenery and our visits to the west coast.

ilikelichenblog: February 2009
http://ilikelichenblog.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Musings on nature, soul and craft. Thursday, 26 February 2009. I’m happy to report that my. Have been leaving the nest as fast as I can assemble bodies, wings, beads and brooch clips. Like my little birds I too am preparing to leave the nest, my lofty eyrie looking out to. And the surrounding hills. My migration however involves the impossible task of taming an unruly flock of immigration forms which like little birds never seem to stay in the same place for too long. A snowy Ben Lomond taken from my flat.

Friday, 15 May 2009. Lessons in the making. When it comes to dying I’m a gambler. No charts or weighing just the random science of sprinkling. The more sprinkling involved the bigger the piece of felt to be dyed as I know it will be hard to reach that exact shade again. While I’ve bee...I’d been thinki...

Musings on nature, soul and craft. Saturday, 9 May 2009. And the (giveaway) winner is. My random winner decider for the giveaway is Sue, a very willing adjudicator. I wrapped the participant names up in paper scrunched round a dog bisciut. Sue gave careful snuffled consideration to each entry before crunching her final selection who was Kitty. She then celebrated Kitty's win by eating all the other contestants. Kitty contact me with your address and i'll post it out to you. 9 May 2009 at 18:20. Sounds li...

Musings on nature, soul and craft. Friday, 15 May 2009. Lessons in the making. The dying process has become a ritual: lift the box from under the counter unpacking the red chipped enamel pot and the dying towel which holds a history of all the colours I’ve created unlike the stirring spoon whose colours have all merged to form a sludgy mud hue. I’d been thinking how I approached craft after reading interviews of artists approaching that 'space' as sacred. The mornings soundtrack a collection of...I conce...
