Katherine Emtage: April 2013
http://katherineemtage.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Monday, 15 April 2013. This week I am working on a batch of clasp purses. I started them last week so am determined they get finished as soon as possible! There are two new Harris tweeds, and a whole range of new cotton floral linings to keep things fresh. The best part of making these purses is deciding which lining to put with which tweed, and not make two purses the same. Waiting for frames to be attached. Attaching the purse frames. New Harris tweed in Grape (slightly overexposed!

Katherine Emtage: Beautiful Outer Hebrides
http://katherineemtage.blogspot.com/2013/09/beautiful-outer-hebrides.html
Thursday, 26 September 2013. My trip to the Outer Hebrides was amazing. Really inspirational. I knew the scenery would be unique and beautiful, but I didn't realise how much like a piece of tweed the scenery would resemble. Or how the light and weather would change every minute to renew your vista and ignite your senses. On the ferry from North Uist to Harris. Evening view from my hotel bedroom, Stornoway, Lewis.

Katherine Emtage: The Story of the Musette; Part Two
http://katherineemtage.blogspot.com/2013/07/the-story-of-musette-part-two.html
Wednesday, 10 July 2013. The Story of the Musette; Part Two. With the dimensions of the musette set by tradition, there were still a number of design decisions to be made, including finding the perfect colour for a smart urban tweed musette? It needs to be modern, practical, interesting and wearable. It also needs to go with black, as black is integral to the Stolen Goat brand identity. In the end three colour-ways were selected; River Blue, Forest Green and Rolling Moss. Here's some of the process.
