Down in the depths of the Denver studio i have been busy busy busy creating new and wonderful things so this let's me introduce to you a lovely little lady.....
Introducing Miss V
This is Miss V my new character. I had a bit of a time trying to name her. You see when i named 'Plumb man', my other character, it automatically came from the meaning of the word plumb (to understand something obscure) which is the slogan for Denver Mackenzie going along with the whole quirky theme of the label.
I wanted her to be somewhat of a sweet little lady to coax plumb man out of his wicked ways but the name was not to be too 'human like' if u know wht i mean?! o the V stands for Vanilla- being sweet and everybody likes the smell of it, don't you?
While sewing the first tee she will be featured on i have been using a nice soft interlock and yesterday i ran into a bit of trouble with the needle and foot wanting to eat it all up (the sewing thread moving l over the place and crunching through the material) so came the need to UNPICK, i don't know anyone who likes unpicking their sewing so i headed to the Nicole Mallalieu Design - Tips and Tutorials website and got some great tips from her quick unpick section. She is a real smarty pants i must ad ha ha but very very helpful in sewing matters. This is the tee finished
The Miss V tee
Moving on i have the YDM at Southbank this weekend (Sunday) ad looking forward to displaying and getting some feedback on the 'Sloppy Greg's'- had a great response from the Brisstyle marketeers and customers last friday night in KGS selling nearly all the stock i had made!
(my stall set up at the BiTM)
And if i get all those sewed up in time will be doing some illustrated tote bags featuring Miss V and Plumb man.
Happy Thursday! xo
