Meet some of the designs of the silk-screen atelier of Skittish Skies. All prints you see are handprinted and designed in our own atelier. The print on the top above is made of torned and burned fabric.
This large prints up and below are made by drawings by the hand of Anne-Britt. You see it covers the most of the top, it’s so fun to see ánd do!
Prints made by burning en torning fabrics and fibers and other techniques. It creates the most amazing affects. Thanks also to the young woman who shows it so well!

Last week I got inspired at the Design and Handcraft stockmarket ‘Meesterlijk’ in Amsterdam. As the dresses above from Michael Barnaert van Bergen shows what’s possible with knitwear, it makes me curious how screenprints will react on knitwear. Soon you will find out on this blog.
This was the firts year that ‘Meesterlijk’ was to be seen at the RAI in Amsterdam, I saw lovely handmade products from designers and art-professionals who were there to present them. The jacquard woven fabrics presented by Christie van der Haak were very impressive to see.
Watch the combination od colours in these textiles who are made by the hand of Bernadette van der Braak, B-Made is known for her big colourful textile objects with stitching.
Have you ever seen a jacket that is handmade from recycled postbags? I think it’s amazing! The designer is Shirdak who makes plaids, jackets, shoes and hats in small ateliers in Turkey, Asia and Egypt.
The final piece I must show you, because the hand-bags were so beautifully made, they come from the collection of the Tassenmuseum, the quality of the objects and the history tells a story of richness and incredible skills.
