Great Northern Contemorary Craft Fair Favourites

As promised here is a selection of my favourite makers from GNCCF:


 Allyson Gee

A Glasgow based jewellery designer with a stunning collection of encased butterflies. Incredible intricacy and fragility combined with graphic geometric structures.

 Suzi McLaughlin

Suzi works with laser cut paper and fabric to produce beautiful cascading floral installations. I love the white and cream pieces- perfect for weddings. On her blog you can see her extravagent coloured works too.

Julia Snowdin

A conceptual artist producing knitted forms for ceiling installations. Her work seems to have an almost fluid quality whilst retaining strong orderly lines and sequences.

Elspeth Edmondson

Elspeth was showing my favourite piece at the whole fair. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a picture of it! It was a stunningly simple piece of curled off white paper presented in a huge box frame. She works with typography and plays with ideas surrounding 2D & 3D work. Clean and crisp aesthetics, perfectly executed.
