Fact: I wish I did textile design!
When you see someone who does such bold and engaging designs it reminds me of these 2 facts.
When you read that they are in Cape Town, South Africa at the same time that you are in Cape Town, South Africa and they invite you to come and see what they are doing, you go! I went!!
Here's a glimpse of some Shine Shine fabric that came back to Yorkshire with me in my suitcase that according to DH was just far to heavy (I recall a conversation about men and mice... say no more!)
Tracy of Shine Shine (sitting behind her desk here), does great textile design and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting her in her Bo-Kaap studio in Cape Town.
Shine Shine also turns great textile design into fun products: bags, cushions, aprons...!
If you are in Cape Town, and they ARE in Cape Town, pay them a visit, I thought it was wonderful.
On another note:
Here, in Yorkshire, the sun will not 'shine shine' this weekend, but it did the other day and the boys just love getting out in the sun and the river with friends...
And the cows and I enjoy watching them :-)
