Ruby Star

My sweet dog Ruby, the Retriever x Shar Pei is a little star when it comes to house shoots that need colour and movement. Sharyn Cairns and I shot this house for H&G...many times, it was the shoot that never ended. Ruby saved the day by looking cute and giving the house that much needed injection of 'life'.
She looks so slim here...think we may need to get her back to her glamour weight.

Like FAB

THE TEENAGERESS IS COMPLETELY OBSESSED WITH THE BEATLES....I blame
the husband, what is Irish and equally as obsessed,  h o w e v e r  Liverpool IS the 33rd county of Ireland.

If, like me you have a stash of fabrics going nowhere, man...then get them out and create your own FAB art.

We bought our frame at the former Swedish, now Dutch owned IKEA and the fabrics are from the home collection. The type was designed on screen and printed out ready for tracing onto the wrong side of fabrics.

A little snipping here and there, some layout within a frame, then some magical mystery webbing for ironing in place onto a plain or patterned fabric background.
