Petra Boase designs

I love these quirky vintage-inspired prints by Petra Boase. She is another regular at the Cockpit Arts Open Studios - and I always stock up on baby t-shirts for the plethora of newborns which seem to regularly appear around me.

I was so pleased when my ex-colleague gave me a Petra Boase mug as a leaving present from my last job. A very inspired move indeed, except that I then broke it very shortly afterwards. But I refused to throw it away - so it's sitting on a corner of my desk, waiting for someone with more patience than me to fix the broken handle with Superglue - so it can become my new pen pot of choice.
