The final installment of June’s Pick ‘n’ Mix feature has a botanical theme. Our Digital Artist in Residence, Aileen Collis, has created a design based on an image of an illustration of wild rose haups in Illustrations of Scottish Flora (1912-1913) by David R. Robinson, part of the Kinnear Collection, held at University of Dundee Archive Services.

And, above, here’s a detail of another of another illustration "Types of Bramble. Rubus Fructicocus (Rosaceæ). From Woods Strathmigle to Falkland road, July 29th, 1913".

The latest installment of June’s Pick ‘n’ Mix feature has a seaside theme. Our Digital Artist in Residence, Aileen Collis, has created a design based on a seaside image. Aileen previously created digitally-printed fabric from a photo of Southport rock, and this fabric was used in constructing a Punch ‘n’ Judy booth – pictured here on Southport beach in Summer 2005. The Punch ‘n’ Judy booth also made an appearance at the Archives Hub’s To Boldly Go! event that July.

For the latest installment of this month’s Pick ‘n’ Mix feature, our Digital Artist in Residence Aileen Collis has created a design based on a digital image of a pattern book in the collection of E Y Johnston, Textile Manufacturer, Galashiels, held at Heriot-Watt University.

So here’s a photo of some colourful fabric from another Heriott-Watt collection, that of Alan Paterson (died 1986), who collected and researched Highland dress and tartan. The photo shows a woman’s silk stole in Jacobite tartan.

For the first installment of this month’s Pick ‘n ‘Mix feature, our Digital Artist in Residence Aileen Collis has created a design based on a digital image of an eighteenth century manuscript recipe book, probably compiled by a Mary Bennet. Here’s a detail of the page showing recipes for "a whipp’d syllabub extraordinary" and pancakes. The John Rylands University Library has another book which includes "an excellent cake my mother’s way which never fails", but unfortunately the paper was too fragile to scan.
