Fumi

Fumi had been making use of her Gelli plate to explore pattern and layering using plant material from her garden .These pieces are multi coloured but 

she has also mimicked Cyanotype by a clever choice of colour.

For her Pearl inspiration for Centrespace in October she has chosen to stitch a piece representing Thirty years.She has precisely marked her fabric with squares ,one  and a half squares represent one month. it is so very even and such a simple but beautiful representation.The back is equally delicious!

Her husband plays golf and Fumi has taken a wooden tee ,apparently designed to be broken when hit, and crocheted a flag to fit .It is a play on Hidden as half the tee sticks in the ground and is therefore hidden.

She delights in using the discarded and has made a stitch book with envelopes we all get in the post.The patterns within add a certain charm, but Fumi’ precise folding is the real star.
