Mosehouse Studio: March 2015
http://mosehouse.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
A compendium of craft projects. Thursday, March 12, 2015. Well, I think I've finalised the design for Michele Leggott's 'Matapouri' poem. I hope to make a start producing the edition over Easter. I've hung this one in the stairwell so that I can think about it as I walk up and down the stairs over the next couple of weeks. I've added an account of the design concepts to the end of my previous post in case you're interested to read more about it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

http://mosehouse.blogspot.com/2015/02/matapouri.html
A compendium of craft projects. Friday, February 20, 2015. In the exhibition associated with the Art Book Symposium that I took part in at the Dunedin School of Art last October I displayed the prototype textile poem of Michele Leggott's poem 'Matapouri'. 'Matapouri' is the final piece in Michele's latest collection Heartland. Which was published by AUP. In 2014. Here's the poem:. The magpies come to the corner of the house. And talk all morning to the figure on the flag that hangs. Will lead me step by ...

Mosehouse Studio: Vanessa or Don...
http://mosehouse.blogspot.com/2015/02/vanessa-or-don.html
A compendium of craft projects. Monday, February 9, 2015. Vanessa Bell Oranges and Lemons (. We were playing that game over Christmas where people match you with a famous historical figure. Jack picked English artist Vanessa Bell (1879-1961) for me, which I was pretty pleased about. I do love a nice Bloomsbury Still Life, like the ones above and below. Vanessa Bell, Still Life with Milk Jug and Eggs,. The two images come from The Bloomsbury Cookbook. Mark Gertler, Still Life with Apples and a Mixing Bowl.

A compendium of craft projects. Tuesday, October 21, 2014. If you are interested, you can see an animation of one of Lesley's pop-ups by clicking here. I took the opportunity to discuss two new Pania Press publications, which were displayed in an exhibition of contemporary book art in the adjoining gallery space at the Dunedin School of Art, beautifully curated by Natalie Poland and Peter Stupples. The images above are installation shots of the Pania Press display. In the process of making the edition of...

Mosehouse Studio: three minute bangles
http://mosehouse.blogspot.com/2011/06/three-minute-bangles.html
A compendium of craft projects. Sunday, June 12, 2011. I had a little frenzy of bangle making after breakfast this morning using the four kinds of vintage knit fabric I showed you in yesterday's post. This is what the finished bangles look like when worn. Measure your wrist and cut a piece of non-fraying stretch knit fabric with an extra seam allowance of 1.5cm. My fabric pieces measured 27cm square. In my experience, speed crafting very seldom works out, but these three minute fabric bangles are an exce...

Mosehouse Studio: December 2013
http://mosehouse.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
A compendium of craft projects. Monday, December 23, 2013. The Nightingale (page two). Every year I make Jack something special for Christmas. This year I thought it was about time I made the second pop-up page of Jack's English translation of 'The Nightingale' by Marie de France. I made the first page last year. Here are some images of the process:. I always start by making a basic mock-up of the design so that I get all the measurements right. Then I make the pop up forms in nice card. I opted for a re...
