Selvedge Advent 2009

To mark their first Christmas at ‘162 Archway Road’ Selvedge invited their favourite artists, designers and makers to contribute to their first ever ‘advent calendar’. The ‘Handmade Holiday’ pictures could represent any aspect of the season as long as it used a textile medium and was red and white.
Tea & Make commissioned the wonderful Sara Tierney, and she made this beautiful piece (inspired by our very own logo!)

See it here with all the others on the Selvedge Blog.

New Years Distractions....

So the blog's been a little quiet since our December event - Esther and I have both been a little busy with the distractions of a New Year and new projects - amongst other things, Esther has recently been awarded a PhD scholarship from the University of the West of England, researching "The Creative Industries/The Creative Practitioner, focussing on the influence of mobile devices and social collaboration upon the creation of new technology-based craft." - see below...

and amongst lots of work commitments, from running Pheasant, to re-designing the branding and interior of a new pub in Wales with Esther, I have found time to take on 2 more rescue babies....


















BUT we will be bringing you news of Tea & Make events and projects for 2010 very soon...
