The Robin Journey...
I took part this year in an artist open house...In Brighton it is popular for artists to open their house and create there own gallery. I decided to make hanging robins for the one I was in.. I thought about 15 or so would be enough and the first batch was using my favourite method of stitch and paint on canvas...
These sold very quickly...so I made more...this time on blanket and I added party hats and sequins to these..
These also sold... I realised that I made them as singles mostly...all facing the same way.
A dear friend and quite a romantic said to me...how about making some more to face these...to be couples <3
Funny this as I am single and somehow had done this unconsciously...maybe the sewing process is telling me
something!
They got so popular I had to limit the amount I made to stop myself having enough!
I gave 2 away on my FB page...
I never want to become a factory and like to make things for enjoyment... SO one last batch made for people who ordered from me...
Some couples too!
Next year whatever I do I now know to make MORE...
