These super-cute penguins are trying to persuade me to sign up to British Gas.
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.
My oldest son is obsessed with penguins so that promotion might have worked on him. I’m enjoying the variety in your crowd of faces.
Yes, I did not imagine having animal faces on there when I first started. These penguins were a perfect contrast.
Ha ha! These bewildered penguin faces fit this cut-out treatment to perfection!
Yes, they were very easy to cut and sew. If only everyone had a round face :))))
Poor penguins – they get roped into doing all kinds of selling.
So they do, hadn’t thought about it before
It’s really looking great – it’s so interesting to me too how many feelings it evokes, I feel something new every time! You might have mentioned this, but how big will the final piece be? Your commitment is impressive!
Thanks Cath. I haven’t measured it exactly (suppose I should), but it’s a double-bed blanket.
