Crafts at the MQ for a good reason......

Now the funny 3 days of taking part in a craft workshop with kids are over and we have managed to create a big bunch of textiles squares with the kids.
Soon we will finish it off to a wonderful big patchwork and hand it over to Designers against AIDS.

Emma Bell, Polona Dolzan, Scott Ramsay Kyle and Pebelle have been creating patches as well.

Pebelle showcase @ "Fish and Chips twice please?!"

My favourite fashion exhibit here in Vienna: "Fish and Chips, twice please?!" at the Freiraum 21 in MQ!

Opening it's doors a month ago this Contemporary fashion exhibition is presenting the UK as a hub for international design talent.

The exhibition is directed and curated by British fashion designer, Emma Bell, and curator Polona Dolzan. Presenting the industry's most forward thinking creatives including designers; Louise Gray, Charlie Le Mindu, Scott Ramsay Kyle, Piers Atkinson, Dashing Tweeds, Louise Amstrup, Cooperative Designs, Nicholas Kirkwood and Craig Lawrence.

Here is a link to their blog: http://fishandchipstwiceplease.blogspot.com/

As a part of the exhibition's accompanying programme the focus is on featuring "New designer showcases".
The idea of this element was to highlight the presence of new and emerging designers within current industry so our programme allows for a selection of design graduates and start-up labels to present their work as part of a rotating showcase space within the gallery.

Now PEBELLE is presenting part of her new collection "forest and veins" for the next three weeks.

Here's a little preview:
