My Creative Space - Meterage

I'm playing along with Kirsty's My Creative Space meme today. Visit Kootoyoo to join in or to see other spaces.


Experimenting with meterage and wanting to try something simple and graphic; something suitable for lining perhaps. This is from a block I carved a couple of weeks ago now. 


Originally, I wanted it to go with my other block - something to make it a bit more interesting, less twee... but now I'm thinking it stands alone pretty well :) 


Of course, I couldn't resist trying it with that other block (I don't really like it I have to admit!). My Big Girl calls it the 'Bunny Ears' design. 


Hope it's a good day for everyone. Don't forget I'm having a collar giveaway!

I do like it on its own. It would be very suitable for lining, but I think it would do just fine as an outer fabric too!

kylie, i love it! and always appreciate learning a new word "twee", awesome!!! i looked it up right away b/c it sounded so "sweet"...little did i know that it's Brit slang for that exact word. haha, so good.

and the bunny ears sounds like a perfect title too. oh and just got to Baz Luhrman's brilliant sunscreen song on your player - 100% adored.

pea ess: just noticed i'm on your fave reads list, wow thanks so much. gives me the chance to use my new word for the 1st time! you're totally twee, xo ♥

Kate said...

I think its fabulous! Simple and striking.
I don't think it needs to be hidden in the lining either. I think it would make a stunning garment or part of one.

Tania said...

Bunny Ears ROCK! I would happily skirt around in that design. And simple is perfect.
