Still quite obsessed…

1940′s style circus with our animal of the month taking centre stage and a poster dated around 1799 on display at the British Museum, I bet those elephants were really stupendous!

Rumble in the Jungle

I was delighted to be approached by Elephant Family, the charity behind those beautiful elephant statues, which charged onto the streets of London last year. The task was to Hillierise a blanket to be on display in Edinburgh alongside a collection of jungle animals. We opted for a perfectly woven Ardalanish blanket (a traditional weavers from the Isle of Mull) and with the help of our brilliant intern Grace Cooper the result was a crafty menagerie of appliquéd animals. Please show your support by donating to the fund. Thank-you with a wink.
