Enigma - New Series - Memories

This next part of the series is all about the memories people left behind. The museum collects items given to them by members of the public and I loved all the amazing stuff that told a real story of real people.

You can find out more about the comic strip Jane of War here.

All my own photographs and textures taken at Bletchley Park.

This is why... - Photo Manipulation

 
 
 
 This image was created originally to enter into the Still Life challenge in the Photo Manipulator's group on Redbubble.

I've recently been to a few Battle of Britain events (check out my previous entries in this blog for pictures: Muckleburgh Collection and Audley End) and I used some of the pictures I took at those events to create this still life. When I started I had no idea where it would lead me but it made me think what the Battle of Britain was all about and what the people fought for. Hope it all makes sense. :-)

Mimi the Wishing Cat

Here's a little cat I made earlier....

... she's a special present for my sister who's moving house soon. She loves cats but is allergic to them and I thought this little cat is perfect for her.

Mimi

Little Mimi is a special wishing cat. She makes wishes come true. :-)


She's knitted using a pattern I made up as I went along in Debbie Bliss Cashmerino in rose, fuchsia and burgundy.


Her face has been embroidered with embroidery silk, and cotton, and yarn and her eyes are two black buttons.

The flower (she insisted on having) is hand crocheted and embellished with another button.


Mimi is all soft and squishy as she's stuffed with pure lambswool.

Her paws are also embroidered.


Mimi can't wait to get to her new home....

If you want your own special cat, let me know and we'll sort out something. :-)
