For centuries women have used cloth as a tool of comfort and as an expression of beauty within their homes. Creating cloth for warmth, cloth for shelter, our female predecessors embellished these linens with hand stitch using laborious and time consuming techniques thereby enhancing the functional beauty of objects which enveloped and protected their families. Inspired by these women I hope my creations pay tribute to and recognise the devotion expressed in cloth by our female ancestors .

You were very enamoured with my pin piilow the other day.

Thank you!!

Today I thought I'd share my pin pillow collection with you.

You can never have too many pin pillows.

I'd be too afraid to put pin holes in such pretty thigs - they're art objects!
