It's childish, I know, but I don't think I'll ever get over the magic of being able to print the same image again and again and again.

Which makes it hard to stop once I get going.

I'm working on a bunch of designs for tags - pretty instant gratification, because the blocks are small and carve quickly. I've also been testing new textile inks; the wash tests start tomorrow. Hold thumbs, please!

For more printy stuff, have a look at the printing workshop I gave last week at AAA. Ink everywhere!

These are stunning. They feel quite festive, in fact. Christmassy.

Hold thumbs - is that for luck? We say to cross your fingers. Good luck either way :-)

sweet and pretty; love the black and the cream together. I get a buzz from the repetition of printing too quite relaxing when you get in the groove :-)
