Finally got some amazing, brightly-coloured flanged cord piping from @dalston.mill.fabrics now it is open.

I am making cushions to fit the built-in seating in our kitchen using vintage fabrics. They will be double-sided to be mixed and matched depending on mood, each edge with different coloured piping.

Might try and find one more fabric design to add to the collection or double up on the top (vintage IKEA ‘Syssan’) fabric.

Bottom left is Paule Marrot for Bruschwig & Fin and bottom right is Juliet Glynn Smith ‘Toy Cupboard’ for Conran.

What do you think? Add another or double up on green plants?

A card for a friend. Trying to draw, paint and create more and do it intuitively. Today, I was simply inspired by the wallflowers popping up in my garden and the plants in my kitchen whilst thinking about swimming in the sea. Am reading ‘Untamed’ by @glennondoyle - a present from my amazing sister @annieridout and it is truly eye-opening. Feeling inspired by ‘Wallflowers’ feels like a relevant but coincidental synchronicity today...

Who else feels the magic when stumbling across a patch of newly blooming violets?

Viola Odorata is a really rare, expensive and precious extract in perfumery as you need so many violets to create even a drop of pure extract. Today, it is highly unusual to find perfume containing real violet. Its sweet, powdery scent is usually replaced with a synthetic version.

However you can still get essential oil of violet leaf which has the most amazing fresh green cut grass, cucumber and melon notes. A little goes a very long way!

Other uses for the flowers are flavouring sugar, making a sugar syrup or sugared flowers. You could also try a mini home enfleurage too.

The main problem is finding a patch you know a dog or animal won’t have weed on, as they tend to appear in grass or on low banks!

Mood-boarding for an exciting branding project I am working on.

Taking inspiration from torn and cut antique paper, painterly marks and warm but bold joyful colour palettes.

Watch this space, all will be revealed in the new year.

Stained glass fruit chips inspired by @homechefseattle

Fruit colours are so beautiful and how pretty do they look when they bleed into one another?!

The shapes of the fruits start to look really regal too. Going to attempt a really big pattern next time.
