I am sailing ...




So this is why I've not posted the last week - has completely taken over my life ... its still got a few little details that I'm not done with but I just had to stop at 2 am last night and call it quits. I set them up this morning (same hull, 3 sets of interchangeable sails) so I could practice swapping them - and make sure everything was hunky-dory and take these photos. Its all packed up (dismantleable ... thank goodness!) and I'm off to college to present it in about 10 minutes. Individual crits tomorrow so you'll have to wait till a little after for more better pictures!

Edit: Oh yes... the state of my desk: And thats not even the half of it!

Wowza! This is totally bloody brilliant. I want one.

And, it's always so comforting to see a desk that looks a bit like mine.

Oh, somebody else already said Wowza. We did spell it differently though. No doubt mine is the wrong way. Spelling is not my strong point. Or grammar!

Oh you clever person!!!! Your book is AMAZING. I LOVE IT!! The idea of a 3 d book is perfectly amazing. I hope your crit is a huge success. You inspire me!

And the desk shot is priceless. A perfect disaster for a great work of art! Gotta break a few eggs to make an omlet!

That's a book? Wow indeed! what an enormous amount of work, and what a clever idea. I adore the shapes and colours. Hope the presentation and crit went well.

Hi there

Just a quick note about the Lotta Jansdotter book. It's lovely and covers all kinds of printing in a back to basics, easy to understand way. You prob know the theory but it's such a lovely book to flick through and very inspiring. I would say get one, they are under a tenner from amazon
