The woodblock diary of Alex Gillies…. Gallery Of Woodcut Prints Exhibited To Date. Artist Books I’ve Made. There’s really a hundred different ways I could title this post. Today it will be this though. You might be noticing a patten here. A flurry of blog posts then nothing for months. Another flurry and then nothing and so on. Sorry, that’s just how it is really. Time to tell others is something I’m not good at factoring into my to-do list. This is half of the last chapter in the series. This is the...

Grieg – Young Sharks 7inch Single | Against the grain
https://againstthewoodgrain.wordpress.com/2015/03/04/grieg-young-sharks-7inch-single
The woodblock diary of Alex Gillies…. Gallery Of Woodcut Prints Exhibited To Date. Artist Books I’ve Made. Grieg – Young Sharks 7inch Single. One project I have been occupied with over the last few months has been creating a 7inch single for my band Grieg.

By now it was mid F...

Two-colour twist | Touchwooddesign
https://touchwooddesign.wordpress.com/2015/07/28/two-colour-twist
July 28, 2015 at 9:09 am. I think I’m officially ready for the markets this Saturday! I’ll be taking quite a few new cushions along, including this variation on my South African postage stamp design – I tried a two-colour twist so the letters could sit more cosily together. See you this Saturday outside the Gallery of Modern Art at South Brisbane! Entry filed under: Cushions. Places I like to visit. QAGOMA Winter Design Market. Saturday Special: Simplicity 5340.

Saturday Special: McCall’s 2467. July 11, 2015 at 10:04 am. Some Mad Men cushiony goodness for today’s pattern pick. This little gem is from 1961.

August 11, 2015 at 8:37 am. Here’s another pic from the GOMA markets – a Kenyan friend was chuffed to discover I’d made a stamp cushion from his country! It’s always so much fun seeing people’s faces when they find meaning in something you’ve made! If you went to the markets, but you’re having Cushion Regret, you can make amends with a visit to the Touch Wood Design Etsy store. Which is now back up and running. Entry filed under: Cushions. Kenyan lion stamp cushion. Saturday Special: Simplicity 6732.
