Another post at last!




About time I added a post to this sadly neglected but highly sophisticated blog!

Lots of wonderful things have happened this year.


I now have four book contracts. Three with Search Press, UK for knitted toys and a History of Textiles with Remember When, an imprint of Pen and Sword, also UK. Very exciting. I feel my life has now begun in earnest.



Pictured here are two photos of my gothic knitted horror.


I've also uploaded an illustration I did for my daughter of the Queen of Hearts..


The pencil drawing of the little girl is unfinished but I think it will start a series of fine pencil drawings called The Playroom.


I have so many ideas and plans I just need the time and energy to get them up and running.

I'm also getting a website done. It will be: http://www.fionamcdonald.com.au/ I shall link it to the blog when it is ready (we are only in the prelimanary stages).


Until then I shall try to keep this blog a little more up to date with lots of pictures.

Large Soft Sculpture figures











Four large figures done way back in the late 90s. I still love them. Johann witht he white hair sold. The Wife of BAth and Wayne, in the striped trousers went to live at the gallery, Chaucer on Bridge Street in Uralla. And the Succubus was eventually transformed into the Whore of Babylon, top photo, which got into the 2002? Blake Prize Travelling exhibition.
