Patched.

{A windy moment and a patch almost lost.}

In change from everyday, a one-off patch has been made especially for Lizzy’s marvellous Project Patchwork 2010. Louise and I are one of several involved and given the simple joyous task of decorating a 30-centimetre patch for worthy cause. For our square, we embroidered a rabbit and placed him upon a tree in blossom. Lest he be lonely up there in the unfamiliar, we gave for company a purple bird. Here is a look at the finished patch, and in time, you will be able to see it in its place in the finished quilt.

+ Further details about this project and the finished quilt's raffle as well as other patches in various stages of completion beg further exploration.

  • Traveller dear,

    Louise Jennison and I make artists’ books, we make all sorts of things, and most usually we make things on paper. Collaboration comes naturally to us both; it is an enjoyable and wholly inspiring process that yields treasure not possible without the other. Working side-by-side, as we do from our home-based studio in Melbourne, Australia, it is a pattern we are familiar with; a path we are delighted to tread, seeing what new scenario evolves. Collaboration throws up the unexpected, and what is not to like about that?

    Please take a rolling photographic (tumblr) tour of our recent collaborative exhibition, By This Unwinking Night.

    With paper sufficient to cover the moon and sincerely yours,
    Gracia Haby
