The new additions to my blanket come from a magazine called Ruxley Manor. It comes through my door a couple of times each year. I have never visited Ruxley Manor and no doubt, never will. The reindeer was drawn by Geoff Nutkins. Sorry to de-antler him, Geoff, it was a sewing issue.
If You Are New Here: This project involves me sewing faces, from the obscene amount of junk mail that finds its way into my house, onto a big woollen blanket. ‘Uninvited’ was the working title, until I changed it to ‘Mostly Uninvited’. Unless I tell you otherwise, take it that the junk mail was pushed through my letterbox. Or else it was inside of a newspaper. I will always credit photographers, designers and the faces, whenever possible. All of my work is numbered, this is 632. If you search this number in ‘Categories’, you can find out about the other faces.
I admire your tenacity and your daily recording of it. Cannot wait to see the finished piece.
Thanks Tina x
There’s something quite painful about the little puncture marks in the children’s faces..It really makes a powerful statement seen out of context..
Thanks Cath. Yes, sometimes I feel like I shouldn’t be sewing them :))))))
