This months American Miniaturist magazine has an article on moi. How cool is this....I love how they've done it....looks like the plants are about to jump off the page and bite you...or in some cases lick you :-)
Thanks Bailey and the rest of your team, I am really impressed. I love the comment about NastYurtium Nanci needed to floss more lol
And thanks to Kat for sending me a copy. I can't buy one anywhere near me unfortunately and I subscribe to their other magazines.
If you click on the photos you should be able to get them large enough to read it.
So, is your plant here :-)
And as well as having a grungy fabric tutorial in Dollhouse Word, Kat from Kat The Hat Lady is also featured in American Miniaturist...way to go Kat !
Now I just need to go find a copy for my Nan who I mention in the article. It was my Nan and Grandad who first got me into miniatures when I was very small.
Unfortunately, my Nan is not at all well and has been in a nursing home for a while. Pretty tough when I live on the other side of the world. A lot of the while she doesn't know who people are or why she is where she is but I am hoping that my Mom can read and show this to her she'll remember me and the things we used to make together :-(

Jayne!! So that's you? Wow, not dorky at all. You are pretty and hip and I can imagine a creatively wild and hippy side to that face :):).
ReplyDeleteThis is a great article and the pictures they pick and how they format them is just great. You should make a poster of this page. Seriously, print them poster size and frame it up and hang it in front of your craft table.
I knew these floozies are going to take you far :). Quick, show us more of that whacky side :).
Congratulations, my friend :). So proud and thrilled for you :).
I hope you Nan enjoys seeing your article, I am sure she will in her own way :-). I lost my Nan last month hit me like a ton of bricks I loved her dearly and she was a champion of my hats. Whenever I thought of giving up she would always make me make her a hat so I wouldn't give up ha ha! Bless her and all Nan's xxxxxxx
ReplyDeleteThanks Robin...it is a great article.
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel....confusing me posting as Paul lol.

ReplyDeleteHi Julie....blooming brilliant news lol...oh I do miss my English freinds :-) Thanks ...I am chuffed.
ReplyDeleteyes Susan that is me lol. I am so not hip but I am most definitely hippy :-) I just look so serious.
ReplyDeleteEven Mick thought they'd used the wrong photo...he said it looks nothing like me lol.
I was blown away by the way they laid it out...it looks fantastic.
yes I will be framing a copy and hanging up on my wall....it might never happen again :-)
And one day my grandkids can look back and think their Nan was a nutter lol.
Tthe wacky side is working in overdrive...just need 48 hour days to keep up lol.
Dear Kat...I hope so too. Every time you mentioned you nan I thought of my own. It is so wonderful how much she loved your hats and encouraged you xxxx
