I'm doing my 2014 ready to wear range around some of my favorite print fabrics. As you may have guessed or seen on FB these include the ever popular Michael Miller 'Nevermore' prints and a number of Alexander Henry fabrics (my personal favs) along with a few others. I also have plans to add some of my own exclusive printed fabrics to the ready to wear range latter in the year.The initial style/prints will become available for direct sale in standard sizes from May.

Folklorico La Virgen Series......
As apart of my 'mini' print collections I have finished up these two beauties for my show......
Local Shoots
One of my lovely friends had recently planned a shoot with PhilBailey Photography and wanted to loan a corset from me. She opted for this lovely Basic Cuvrvy Underbust - with her favorite 'Nevermore' print on it and she was kind enough to share the images with me:-

Location, Location....
Ok it's not really so much that I want to shoot in a Cemetery it's just so handy being a hop skip and a jump away with beautiful back drops like this Trompe l'oeil (I think I have a previous blog post about this).....and since I am definitely enjoying my 'amateur' photography excursions more and more it has become the 'go to' location:-
And just in general around the Cemetery:-

And as you can see it also makes the perfect back drop for related themes (sometimes I skip the 'Forge' and just play).....

Back to blog basics....
I keep meaning to blog more, so I think I'm going to have to schedule it in for myself......because I keep getting busy and forgetting, well more distracted actually (maybe if I curbed my pinterest addiction a little I would have more time when I'm online)! LOL ;P
Ok Whats realistic? Once a week maybe?
Let catch up anyway.....

Catch up photos......
Ok I've had a bout of DIY shoots over the last month, but I'm still trying to catch up with myself (so bare with)........keeping on task during school holidays is always interesting, but not to worry this month begins the return to some sort of normality/routine ;P
Anyway here's some of the images from the lovely afternoon of shooting I spent with Natasha .......

2014...
Currently I'm in school holiday mode.....my little people are home joining me in some creative endevours and recreational activities. Which is really lovely and fulfilling, though sometimes a little bit crazy, you know siblings they're either all 'in' or all 'out' (but you know motherhood is a wonderful challenge at the best of times - it also accounts for why my brain is all over the place).
On the Forge front I'm busy doing what I always am, planning dreaming and trashing the house!! Yes you did hear that right here's something I found on facebook that sums it up:-
But back to what actually comes from making a mess, here's a piece I made after getting all inspired from a jewelry making session with my 11 and 13 year old. The shoot was done briefly during a playdate with my friend Cindy while she was over with her daughter....
And as I always do in the holidays I have been finishing and refurbishing old stock...

Big Day Out....
Just before Christmas I had the pleasure of spending the day with Melodie M School of Make Up Artistry and Penny Nichols Photography (I know - I'm still catching up with myself, hopefully 2014 will see my blog updated a little more efficiently).
Penny also had her very lovely daughter Jade with her who is also learning the trade and also took some great shoots.....
