Been thinking about the gin that should be resting on top of this coaster all day! Scroll to see some more snaps (this is the square collection - see link for heart collection). Time for a mini celebration, as if I need any excuse- anyone joining me?! #gintastic #wineoclock🍷 #summerdrinks🍹 #patternworld #etsyseller #etsyshop #etsylove #londonlocal #londonlocalteam

25: Being a Maker. It's got to be for the Love. The LOVE of creating, the LOVE of inspiring others, the LOVE of experimenting and the LOVE and postivitity it brings.

23: Hands At Work. These are shots from a Risography course I took last year @HatoPress with the lovey @hurrahbizarre. Hand drawn textures (rubbings from the floor!) with a mixture of charcoal, pen and collage. I've often thought I ought to get my eyes insured but what about my hands!! Going to make some of the results available in my Etsy shop this weekend. Have a great weekend all x #handywork #iloveyouhands #sketching #drawings #draw #doodle #myart #sketchbook #doodles #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker2018 #beckyb1rd #patternzilla
Day 22: Sketchbooks. OH MY TRUE 💚! I went into publishing originally becuase I love paper and filling sketchbooks. Sometimes I like making studies and some times they are more like research books, containing collections of exhibition postcards, food packaging and typography studies. The above are sketches of a lilly before the petals, using pencil, ink and monograph colouring pencils. #sketchbook #sketch #sketches #sketching #draw #drawings #draws #drawn #sketchy #doodle #doodles #coloredpencils #pencil #illustrate #myart #marchmeetthemaker #patternzilla #meetthemaker2018 #beckyb1rd
Day 20: Tools. The more fun and experimentation in creating coordinating pattern concepts the more energy the final piece has. Plus as I’m with the kids half the week I’m a fan of multitasking! Love hearing hearing how mumtrenprenuers balance work and kids - please share your tips!!! #mamahood #mamahoodmarketplace #mumtrepreneur #mumtribe #mamalife #beckyb1rd #makeitindesign #surfacepatterndesign #artlicensing #surfacepattern #surfacedesign #textiledesign #patterndesign #printandpattern #printdesign #textileart #pattern #geometry #geometric #flatlay #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker2018 #beckyb1rd #patternzillas
Day 18: Inspiration. I use music to get in the zone, travel to re-open my eyes and I love to loose myself in courses and books. Here's a shot of a few of my fave art books and heros. Did anyone else see the Basquait at the Barbican this year? 💕💕💕💕 Spot one of your fave books? #shelfie #basquiat #lisacongdon #mattise #hodgkin #rothko #bowiestyle #darrelrees #shelf #bookshelves #bookporn #booknerdigans #bookstagrammer #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker2018 #beckyb1rd #patternzillas
Day 16 :Helpers. My helpers are little, this one was made my by 5 year old 💕. They may be small but they inspire (remind me less is more) and intimidate me all at the same time (perfect simplicity). I wish I could be as prolific as them! Did you make any snow angels this weekend? #littleangels #meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker2018 #inspiredbykids #naturalcreativity #beckyb1rd #patternzillas

Day 9: How is it made. I always start out with sketches or something physical to hold and draw. Sometimes it's a pencil sketch. Often tearing and collaging pieces before I scan and manipulate - hence working in white on a black background. This was the WIP from a previous post "You're never fully dressed without a smile" Scroll to see results! #collage #cutouts #handlettering #lettering #typography #moderncalligraphy #thedailytype #typespire #handmadefont #goodtype #typematters #brushlettering #artoftype #marchmeetthemaker #meetthemaker2018 #beckyb1rd
