I've been really honoured to have a bit of press this month- including an interview on Radio NZ National on the afternoons programme. That was pretty nerve-wracking but such an honour, as I've listened to this station for pretty much my entire life. I also received a copy of Homestyle magazine today with a little picture of my 'flock of birds' teacups nestled in amongst lots of lovely NZ-made homewares. This magazine is fairly new to me, but it looks great and I can't wait to read my copy. (It comes out in NZ bookshops on Monday.)
And in the latest North and South magazine, there's a small article about me and my work, expertly written by Matt Philp- with a photo taken in the sewing room of our old house. The photographer was wonderful, but I felt sorry for her- I made it very awkward in my typical fashion. And Tom has been enjoying teasing me about how huge my feet look in the photo- which I put down to a combination of my shoes being a couple of sizes too big, actually having big feet anyway, and the wide-angle lens. It's always good to have someone to bring me firmly down to earth.
So thank you to those kind readers who have emailed or left a comment here about the interviews- and welcome to my blog.
In other news- at the second-hand shop a while ago, I found a circular piece of glass covered in hand crochet which reminded me very much of Margie's gorgeous work. So now it's gracing the kitchen windowsill and making me think of her. It seems quite old- like a delicate kind of dream-catcher.
I hope you have a relaxing weekend!
