I thought that you might all appreciate this. To give you some idea of what the Inspirational magazine is about, I am offering a featured artist article from the magazine as a free pdf download, in this case Jude Hill. I have called it a Free Taster and it is available on the Inspirational magazine page (http://thetextileblog.blogspot.co.uk/p/inspirational-magazine.html). If you buy this pdf you definitely won’t be charged, I tried it and it does work :)

Jude’s work is simply amazing.

My ladderback chairs are available with Somerset grown rush seats. Chagford based Artisan Linda Lemieux harvests the rush using a coracle boat, pretty cool! Looks great with Black milk paint. Rush is weaved by Alice Wood.

An ancient craft kept alive, despite technological advances. Love it!

Vintage swimwear looks are in this season, but we doubt we’ll see anyone like taylorswift rocking this much of a throwback.

This wool 1880s women’s swim suit weighed 25 lbs when wet. And don’t forget about the wool stockings and head wrap that went along with it. It wasn’t until 1910 that women started to wear these without a corset underneath.

Learn more about the history of swimwear and how ready to wear fashion changed our lives in the National Museum of American History’s Object Project exhibition

Sing with us: “It… was… an… ooly-wooly, itchy-witchy, blue with belt and done up stitchy, suit she wore in the 18-eighties…”

Love the gathered legs under the dress, for that extra bit of modesty.

The counter, file carts and shelving look like a relatively easy DIY project. I like the awning window and Roman shades above. Makes for a crisp uncluttered window. Wallpaper is calming and unobtrusive.
