Welcome

Hello,

and welcome to my textile treasure house!

A stitcher, maker, occasional printmaker and dyer, I’m inspired by handmade textiles. From African batik and mud prints to neat Japanese geometrics and vintage linens, I share the joy by creating small kits and packs.

My block print samples on scraps of vintage/new cottons/linens, tidied and sewn together yesterday.
This will be my autumn travelling stitchery project, using some lush threads.

A wee Saturday sewing day with this cloth I bought from @metaphorracha some considerable time ago. Based in Bangalore and with excellent eco credentials, it is a company with heart. I hope I can visit again one day.
🍁I gathered these a few days ago, feeling like autumn was just around the corner.
And here we are in toasty hot temperatures again…😎

The sun was slipping down over this harvested field as 🐾 and I took a gentle evening stroll. 
Such peace here. 
Such a horrifically unequal world.

Wednesday’s windowsill, with a little licence. This jolly pot is not mine but it’s providing excellent service cheering up a quiet corner in Perthshire! 
I’m sitting outside a yarn shop - can’t promise I’ll leave empty handed…🧶

Took my stitching away with me. Never even took it out my bag…😳

Happily threaded a needle this evening in the company of a snoring Bruce🐾
