Sampler: Krosu Tsunagi sewn in every bright colour Sashiko thread I had to hand including variegated bracelet making cotton. This joyous romp through colour is dedicated to the memory and inspiration of Yayoi Kusama (22 March 1929- 14 August 2026 ) a Japanese avant guard artist who broke through the barrier of monochromatic schemes to bring to the world the colours and shapes playing through her mind. ‘Iroiro arigatou’ (thank you for everything).
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!
