The aim of this blog is to enable me to share my love of textiles and threads with like minded people.
I have always sewn either by hand or machine. I even taught it in the 1970s for a while.
I now create my own substrates on which to stitch. Natural methods of dyeing and botanical printing allow me to combine many aspects of my life that bring me joy. Gardens, art and stitch.

Effervescence II
Finished at last and this image shows my piece in situ at textile21's latest exhibition at The Whitaker, Rawtenstall.
The question I got asked the most is 'how did you manage to get it to stand upright?' And every man who studied it had to look around the back. The secret was an acrylic pole.
