Table runner: Taking inspiration from the blues and greens of the Mid Century Modern Art movement (1955 - 1970) and my love and collection of the famous West German and Bitosi ceramics with their ridged textures and also my love for the Japanese simplicity of Sashiko embroidery and Japanese variegated cottons on heavyweight linen.
This site is to show off my hobby of creative hand sewing. It has been a love of mine since I was 10 years old. Now, not only is it a very meditative past time, but it also exercises my eye & hand co-ordination after a battle with a huge brain tumour that didn't take my life but it took from me a lot of skills I took for granted. NOTHING ON THIS SITE IS FOR SALE. Items I make are for me, my family, my friends and occasionally, charity. Enjoy!
