Another great book

Sorry for my lack of posts this week, I have been having problems with my internet connection, it has been a nightmare, how much do we all rely on having access 24 hrs a day!

Today I'd like to recommend 'Patterns' by Philippe de Baeck. It is full of exciting surface pattern design, featuring some of my favourite artists! Including: My friend Heather Dutton from Hang Tight Studio, Carolyn Gavin from Ecojot, Ian Dutton and Rachael Taylor. It is available at the bargain price of £6.78 from Amazon.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Martha Stewart

My next book which I'd like to recommend to you guys is by Martha Stewart - 'Good Things for Organizing', so of course it is going to be wonderful! She shows a great number of ways to store your craft items using every day objects such as Shoe boxes, Doweling & Jars but not only that, it is full of hints and tip for throughout your home.

Book Inspiration

As I am pretty snowed under this week with licensed character design work, (which is top secret until it is in the shops!), I figured it would be fun to show what books I have in my studio, that inspire me and those that I just love looking at. Of course it goes without saying that my favourite book at this time is 'Print & Pattern' by Bowie Style (aka Marie Perkins), If you haven't checked out her blog, then take a look here, I am addicted to it and really missed it last week when she was away for Easter. The book is available For £12.35 from Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Print-Pattern-Bowie-Style/dp/1856696464/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1271174816&sr=8-1
