Day 52. Embroidered a vagina



Can you tell what it is yet? Yes, that's right. I embroidered a vagina (unsurprisingly for the first time)the other day.

I joined the very lovely people of Craftivist Collective in a workshop to handcraft my very own fabric masterpiece, assisted by Shoreditch Sisters and their brilliant campaign to create an exhibition of beautiful lady-garden inspired artworks to promote the issue of female genital mutilation.

It's a fantastic campaign and I met some great people in the group.

I've still got work to do on mine but check out the photo for where I got up to. And no, we didn't have a real life model to work from...just our memories and imaginations!

A unique and enjoyable way to spend an evening indeed.
