It turns out my vintage-style-toy-making kick I started on in January is not over!
Made with vintage hat felt and topped with a tiny obliging hat I found at the op shop a couple of years back.

Mole in front of an open fire
Snailing Along
๑ï ⚘
Some snail brooches will be in my shop on 1/7/26 @ 9pm AEST :)
All settings switched to snail 🐌
Scene: a share house of small, felt friends (with good taste in animation & music).
On my desk this afternoon: a mole gets a new pair of pants, a cat tries out a small guitar, and E.T. is on the tiny telly.
👞👞Broadway Melody era Gene Kelly as a pug.
A small handmade gift of appreciation for Zadie Smith who is—to her credit—very good at receiving unsolicited felt pugs from me (this being the second).
Thank you to Jaime for the signing line pep talk and for sneaking a picture!
🔺🔷🔶🟡Toyworld Ballet🟡🔶🔷🔺
It’s the final day to see Toyworld 2 at Jacky Winter Gallery!
Thanks so much to everyone who has popped in. If you couldn’t make it, here’s a recital of the T2 ballet just for you—a swan song if you will—screened on The Seven Seas’ handmade CRT 📺
Music by Callum the Nice (the seven seas’ musical alter ego)
・゚✿🫧🌼Gachapon Garlands🌼🫧 ゚・゚
Flower arrangements constructed from recycled gacha bubbles, found fabrics and trapped toys.
I had these bubbles laid out on my studio floor for quite some time and in-between other sewing I’d look over and see if they wanted to be anything yet. It took some time before they started to arrange themselves as flowers, then later as these particular garland-like forms. Some little toys squished in, too, for good measure.
See them at Toyworld 2 - just two days left!

For the annual group show extravaganza ‘Locals’, opening Friday night (Feb 20th) at Outré Gallery.
Thank you to all the friendly faces who popped down to the opening of Toyworld 2 on Friday night! We were so chuffed to see you all; to chat and make merry in the name of toys.
Big thanks to Shena at Jacky Winter Gallery for being the best and making the lead-up, install and opening all such a pleasure.
