bookhou at home

finally some descent sunlight for picture taking - a few things I want to share - thanks for the nice comments about the birds. I will show the pattern when I finish tweaking with it on photoshop-it's so interesting to see how both Roisin and I use different pattern making techniques. I do a lot of photoshop for the tiling and photocopying to do touch ups - she draws the whole pattern by hand on tracing paper. I usually grease the paper to make it translucent before I shoot in on the screen. The above image is a new tea towel - our sprig pattern in chartreuse- when I did ceramics in school chartreuse colours was one of my favorite glazes. To me chartreuse is that wonderful in between colour when leaves turn from green to brown. There is a beautiful ginkgo tree outside of work that I must take a photo of - the colours are so stunning this time of year. this is my new cloud field bag -it is part of a new series of bags - I am loving this linen that is denim-like. This is a small shoulder bag that is light weight. If you like this bag - check back tomorrow - it will be part of our anniversary giveaway - also - the set sales went so well that I will have a more.
