I have now finished the taught part of my course and have an 18, 000 word dissertation to write over summer. Small amounts of sewing time are surely going to be essential to preserve my sanity.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW2ChwdBPz6Xv6GkSqkC5sQSHZNXqXc_wdGJ4rhBhM88fe9UUSvAxeCmbhGczj9yGLjS0oAK-wJEcgNScU-moBuVg_9U_WMQF9xYmt4Q-WKtMxzDGg_ghg3L3J8vHnOX3xwvoJ1B_p0Tw/s1600/houses.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjW2ChwdBPz6Xv6GkSqkC5sQSHZNXqXc_wdGJ4rhBhM88fe9UUSvAxeCmbhGczj9yGLjS0oAK-wJEcgNScU-moBuVg_9U_WMQF9xYmt4Q-WKtMxzDGg_ghg3L3J8vHnOX3xwvoJ1B_p0Tw/s320/houses.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5610978496710910866" /></a><br /><br />I have also booked in to be a part of the craft stalls at the Levenshulme Street Market in June and July, which is exciting. The street market is held monthly on the village green in Levenshulme, Manchester and sells a variety of local items, including handmade, art and foodstuffs (lots of cake, yum yum). <br /><br />I will be selling stuff on <strong>Friday 24th June </strong>and <strong>Friday 22nd July</strong>, would be lovely to see you there!<br /><br />UPDATE 13/07/2011: No Craft Fair in July I'm afraid!

I finish lectures in a few weeks for the Easter break & after that I have the whole of summer to write an 18,000 word dissertation. It is unlikely that I will spend 24/7 on this, for the sake of my sanity, so perhaps a little bit of creative stuff will be possible (I am really hoping so).<br /><br />Anyhow, as part of my course I have been doing a work placement at Whitworth Art Gallery, a lovely place which is part of the University of Manchester. It is also the place where I realised I had my first and only bout of flu, aged around 10. I have been looking at (and cataloguing) all the amazing old textile books in their library, and came across one about 1950s fabric design. I thought I would share a few of the designs I liked best:<br /><br />These are all by Lucienne Day:<br /><br /><br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnRbvMS96RXStZuULmDdOrBzdC-ekPjPS7HSK_J53wOv0i3n5wN2zpA2J7v_t8GIUBmf7-f_pym4Svf-hzwfDNDOUZ6i3nbR6eCH6Eh8LkJRKifGuxZ4lIoNo2Yvkcl6UroTD86TvP89E/s1600/LUCIENNE-DAY_1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5585002852844434594" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 156px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgnRbvMS96RXStZuULmDdOrBzdC-ekPjPS7HSK_J53wOv0i3n5wN2zpA2J7v_t8GIUBmf7-f_pym4Svf-hzwfDNDOUZ6i3nbR6eCH6Eh8LkJRKifGuxZ4lIoNo2Yvkcl6UroTD86TvP89E/s320/LUCIENNE-DAY_1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipUyhX-SHf_97MPnnIEq6i3Co0PlbH8sqhhtmyL9lmCJtq9V_vY94eP7ZUPEBwAQKm7up2_c6tJDf-yUtGMiLt9OJ03neciQuEJ3PIhpZ7BGATs4CaWvkG0YbXjou8VXQOpOVzTTyjJ4M/s1600/ld.bmp"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5585002853563147474" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipUyhX-SHf_97MPnnIEq6i3Co0PlbH8sqhhtmyL9lmCJtq9V_vY94eP7ZUPEBwAQKm7up2_c6tJDf-yUtGMiLt9OJ03neciQuEJ3PIhpZ7BGATs4CaWvkG0YbXjou8VXQOpOVzTTyjJ4M/s320/ld.bmp" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBPBIJkjIkFjZTeoPrDB3MENncX2rQ9iXMEdY5rZJtITEKK3aZCZgTcQKjQk6DeASKL47bqyTknHnpcNm0OPR7l1uCjidLK6kAgBuNrQmqXJ5pJDHnHsc5Jkk3OdOnefkhEePy7qe1z90/s1600/lucienne+day.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5585002850897557250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 223px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBPBIJkjIkFjZTeoPrDB3MENncX2rQ9iXMEdY5rZJtITEKK3aZCZgTcQKjQk6DeASKL47bqyTknHnpcNm0OPR7l1uCjidLK6kAgBuNrQmqXJ5pJDHnHsc5Jkk3OdOnefkhEePy7qe1z90/s320/lucienne+day.jpg" border="0" /></a><br />I love this style so much.

I used to write quite a lot, but haven't done anything much for a while. I came up with a few little pieces, one of which I decided to submit to <a href="http://thepygmygiant.com/">The Pygmy Giant</a> where my friends <a href="http://makingeggs.blogspot.com/">Emily</a> and <a href="http://libraryofdust.blogspot.com/">Giles</a> have had stuff published in the past. They emailed me back on Friday to say they were going to publish my story, which I was both surprised by and very pleased about indeed. You can read it <a href="http://thepygmygiant.com/2011/01/08/the-dangers-of-mashed-potato/">here</a>.<br /><br />It is a little bit unusual for me to show people what I write, but seeing as though someone liked it enough to publish it, I thought I would put a little link to it here.Sarah Reidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11227838103423307595noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799506826480774956.post-12584654586745600462011-01-08T06:01:00.000-08:002011-01-08T06:08:54.564-08:00New YearHappy 2011 everyone!<br /><br /><br />Apologies for the lack of updates recently.

She takes super nice photographs and recently did a series of 66 postcards for her art foundation final project which was wonderfully personal; full of memories and moments and anything and everything bits and bobs which she collected and then presented as a series of connected yet individual snippets. I got very proud in a big sister type way. Anyway. Check her blog out if this sounds up your street!<br />xxxSarah Reidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11227838103423307595noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3799506826480774956.post-83090222361922980662010-06-28T15:40:00.000-07:002010-06-28T15:44:35.555-07:00Strawberries & CakeI moved house the other day.

This is deeply exciting.<br /><br />When I was around thirteen, I used to listen to Steve <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Lamaq's</span> radio show on radio 1 and whenever I heard a song I liked, I would press "record" on my little cassette player. I ended up with these bizarre and fairly awkward-sounding tapes, full of stuff from genres I later realised I didn't like (e.g. metal) and bands who I never learned the names of. There were songs I would listen to over and over, and when I was around seventeen I finally learned that one of my favourites was by a band named Pavement. The moral of this riveting story is that Pavement are really rather good. Broken Social Scene are supporting too. I saw them on Valentine's day probably around four or five years ago and they played for about two and a half hours, which was kind of too long, but enjoyable nonetheless.<br /><br /><a href="http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/uponsun/assets_c/2009/09/Pavement-thumb-400x495.jpg"><img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 495px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/uponsun/assets_c/2009/09/Pavement-thumb-400x495.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I have other exciting news too.....I am going to be a student again!
