Introducing!....Feature artists!

Introducing an original and Innovative idea, Bare Rumps presents limited runs of feature artist prints on her modern cloth nappies.


Feature artists are Jerry Red's pet project for Bare Rumps nappies, working with artists for cute and creative fluffy bums, for the little people in your life. Little children are our treasure, that deserve designer and creative wear just as much and us big mums and dads! 


 So! Here it is!


This series is called-  Memories from my tomorrow's.












 I have been working on this project for quite some time, and is very excited to share my new project with you all, New artists are featured every 3 months, on a small and limited runs, generally they are sold with a set of cards from the artist.




To kick things off, this lovely work is from an Australian artist called Sarah Jones, she works with a label called ....


Tuesday Trenton. 


Sarah has been drawing small stories about her life for over ten years… Her books and cards have been posted all over the world, it would seem that others share these stories… Tuesday Trenton limited edition artists’ books, cards and zines are hand sewn from found, collected and recycled materials.


I have taken parts of Sarah's work and digitalised her work into an embroidery, every design has different embroidered colours for each nappy, no two will ever be the same - in saying that, they are apart of a collective of limited editions, so they are not classed as OOAK. They come is a size large, with the pattern being the "Thyla Pouch" home to Bare Rumps, this pattern is trim, but packed with booster punch. 


 In addition Sarah's designs are printed onto durable quilters cotton which I have used as panels on my Bare Rumps Nappies.




What to expect for numbers?


 "Memories from my tomorrow's" 
A run of 55 nappies with an edition with 55 cards sold together, a future run of 150 nappies will be created over the next few yrs, once the 205 nappies have been created, that's it, no more will be 
created. 


Next batch I make in the studio, I will be making unisex colours, for both sex's


My next planned feature artist is Aviva Reed  her work is nature based, she is a Visual ecologist.
