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 .

Gathering

 

I've been gathering, or more accurately 'scrabbling' around to find things that will fit as I progress my latest design collection.

I think I have fallen a bit short to be honest.

It's true when they say you can have a house full of stuff but still not have the one thing you need! 

I'll crack on and make the most of what I've got, I will try and be inventive

(don't laugh)
