| Introduction | I live in deepest rural Devon in an old farmhouse near the sea with my naughty newfie, Ben. Townie husband is here at the weekend to help walk him! In the week I work part-time for a local charity and spend the rest of my time designing and making textile items. I haunt our local charity/thrift shops to find vintage textiles to recycle for my items and love to use patchwork, applique and embroidery techniques. (Sometimes all at once!) |
