So lovely to use this old encyclopedia as a reference point for the embroidery I’m making today. Found it whilst rummaging in my local Cancer Research charity shop.

Hello lovely Tumblr folk! If you follow my blog you may like to check out the link above. It gives an overview of my education, influences and current work! The feature was broadcast today from Design Juices - a fabulous platform for young designers, also great for research and gathering inspiration! Have a read and retweet/share on facebook if you can! Thanks, Aisling xx
