Freshly Worn

 Thank you to all teams who procured the precious ingredients for a well deserved newly crafted prototype 

Picked up yesterday for a tour of the French Alps this weekend...a marathon jacket to turn around in a few days on a domestic machine, I recommend industrial for this type of double  wool wadding in seams, it means 8 layers, 10 in armholes to crush down, matching checks made the ultimate challenge

2+2 wool wadding=4 + 2 self  + 2scrim (3 in armhole)

Wool 4Love

 So whatever remains from Cutting and quilting goes straight back into the local community to inspire women and girls to cut perfect hearts from squares as part of the Luos  LivingunderoneSun educational workshops aiming at bringing Mathematics and Women together... 

what best way to transform industry offcuts into Love to Last... to create Love Pin Cushions or beautiful ornaments... mum and two daughters enjoyed some bonding time cutting hearts out, each on a size scale of their own measure...

If your heart gets broken you can always make more... 

on a grey London nothing like quilting tartan with real Wool wadding...

Freshly Picked

On a Tuesday

 Ou Mardi, Mars is 👑, and being fiery maybe the reason why the elderly recommend not to do anything on a Tuesday...

No rest for the Creatives... here we use every day to shape a better future...

And for those who have cracked the equitability code of clothes making, share away ...

Equitability: to be defined, group brainstorming : :-)

Any ideas?

MakeMake, PeacePeace

Way for Peace: HOW WAR never WINS

 What if Planets could speak? Looking in the Stars for Peace

 WE SAY PEACE with Planets , PEACE FOR PLANETS. NOT StarWars...

WE ARE TAKING POWER : FOR PEACE

Haumea, Eris? Anything but wars please... women create, yet they cannot stop their own creations destroy the world... how can that be?

Who might be so power thirsty to direct their own drive towards destroying other human beings instead of converting this energy into planet driven unity in a much wider space then ourselves?

Bringing unbalance to the whole world instead of using resources to nourish and conduce prosperity?

A pledge for Peace and Climate Balance to be rediscovered:

How far can we go to find inspiration on International Women’s Day 2023 when it is snowing in March?

Has the climate balance also been so disrupted that we need to wrap up in March?

Whether from Eris supposedly showing the way we express our rebellious sides, which by the way must be a positive feature in being able to create and make,

Or how MakeMake reveals itself into concrete manifestations... uniting forces never ceasing to burst into life... and no war will ever stop that, so YOU big power thirsty guies, your power is off, and you have already lost, as you have always lost: the question remains, how many more do you need to kill or worse - have killed - to admit that?

Juxtaposition

 Interesting word today to share with very active students at BCA 

Love from

 Unexpected corners, be it at New Designers HQs in The Archives, Tottenham Hale, home to  up and coming brands, shaping collections

Or at Living Under One Sun Community project also in Tottenham Hale Down Lane Park shaping the new local Design Sewing Hub for Crafts and Enterprise , 

Another way to look

 at creativity, an alchemical process of transformation, finding inspiration close to natural rhythms,  

by interaction between team members as a chain in reaction, 

  to create a garment as the product of an absorption and release of energy 

 And finally the achieved outcome of Making a garment would be the meeting of all forces in the middle...
