Life with Craft - or is it Art?
All my life I have been sewing. It’s now 50 years, more or less, since my mother started teaching me to sew – buttons on shirts, making clothes, embroidery.
Maybe I started on dolls clothes, though I don’t remember them. I do remember making a blouse (with Mum’s help) when I was about 12. We went up the road to a
new shop, where fabric was very cheap. When we got the fabric home, we discovered why – it was water damaged in places. But it was such lovely fabric, we bought a bit more so we could still have enough to make the blouse, cutting pieces in between the water marks.By the time I was 16, I was making a great many of my clothes. It was the Swinging 60’s in London, I wanted all the latest fashions, and I could have more of them if I spent my earnings from my newly-acquired job as a Copy Typist on patterns and fabric. I wore Hot Pants, I wore the latest slinky 40’s-style dresses, I wore every fashion I could sew myself. What I couldn’t make, I bought in the famous London Petticoat Lane market, which was near to my job in the East End of the city. This world-famous market was where I developed my lifelong passion for bags of all sorts. At lunchtime, the office girls – as we were called then – used to head off “down the Lane”. Petticoat Lane, or Middlesex Street now, was in Tudor time known as Hog’s Lane. From 1608 it has been a clothes market and still operates today, it’s rights being protected by Act of Parliament. I found handbags of all sorts, with every variety of pockets and zipped compartments. I especially liked buckled pockets on the outsides, and patchwork leather and suede.
I have been making patchwork and appliqué shopping bags for a number of years, and even a crazy patchwork handbag. My husband quickly steers me away from Bag
Shops! I used to make all my children’s clothes – knitted, sewn, whatever – until they went to school and discovered everybody else had “bought stuff”. Then they wouldn’t wear my creations any more.
On and off, I have continued to make clothes for myself, and recently completed a Crazy Patchwork Vest from velvet, satin and heavy Chinese satin, donated to me
by my cousin. I added velvet ribbon, heavy lace braid and another braid as finishing touches to the seams, and finished the edges with bias binding. I was pleased as punch with the result, and wore it to our family Xmas gathering. Christmas in Australia is hot, being in early summer, and I was glad to take it off once it had been duly admired.
My current big interest is embroidery. I have always previously used stranded cottons, and just this year started using silks after reading – devouring – books
by renowned embroiderer Helen Stevens. What a contrast! The beauty of silk embroidery is breathtaking.
It took me a long time to tackle my own drawing. I have always designed, because I could never be satisfied completely with some else’s pattern, and always adapted it to suit my needs or to add the elements I was looking for. Eventually I thought, here I am, tracing over some else’s drawing of a bird, say, then chopping it in half so I can turn it’s head around, then drawing inside the line to make it smaller, or outside to make it bigger – try it from scratch, Christine, other people can draw so why not me?
OK, I’m not great, but I can get a reasonable likeness if I keep the lines reasonably simple. That’s quite a revelation to a non-artist. And it’s extra useful now that I’m designing patterns for my new website.
The home I share with my husband is decorated with quilts, embroidery, patchwork cushions, mixed media pictures, and on my wardrobe door handle I have hanging a
hank of a multicoloured, multifibre yearn – the texture and the colours are so appealing that I keep handling it and looking at it. It’s been there for months, and I can’t bear to put it away. That’s Life with Craft – or is it Art?

Bring in Novelty This New Year by Gifting Decorative Boxes
The decorative boxes have always been integral parts of the Christmas tradition. These can be gifted to relatives of all age groups – starting from 8 to 80. These decorative boxes serve a number of purposes. These are used for purposes of storing important things like collectibles and stamps for examples.
The decorative boxes are mostly made out of either metal or wood, even though steel is mostly used. They are very vibrant and feature excellent arrangement of colors and graphics, which are done tastefully. Since these decorative boxes are colorful they are huge hits with the children and people who are outgoing.
Most of the decorative boxes that are available nowadays are lunch boxes. However, there are other variations available as well. There are certain jewelry boxes that can be used to keep away important family jewelry or other accessories that one might have received from their near and dear ones.
There are certain decorative boxes that serve as treasure boxes. The treasure boxes can be used for keeping some important documents at one place. These are normally thought of as classier alternatives to files and folders where documents are kept more often than not.
There are certain decorative boxes that are used only for the purpose of gifting. These are available at reasonably economic prices and can be gifted on every occasion like birthday or Valentine’s Day for example.
There is a special category of decorative box that is used for keeping bottles. These are primarily handmade and are carved out of wood. These boxes incorporate classy designs that give them a separate appeal. These are capable of accommodating a bottle. These can be used for giving gifts as well.
