Welcome

Hello,

and welcome to my textile treasure house!

A stitcher, maker, occasional printmaker and dyer, I’m inspired by handmade textiles.

I have decided to close my shop at the end of August 2026. Until then I will continue to add new stock, often at the beginning of a month. Newsletter subscribers always know first! You can subscribe at the bottom of any page on here.

Happiness is… a fresh supply of my ‘superfood’ granola! 

You may scoff, but toasted oats and seeds and nuts and cacao and cinnamon and a pinch of salt, dried fruit, honey and some oil is my ‘food of the gods’
😋🤗😁

My intentions are good but I just don’t read as many books as I used to. 
I hope that can change as there are stacks of ‘em in the queue.

This early collection of Claire Keegan’s was as good as you’d expect - carefully crafted, not a wasted word.
And now I’m savouring artist James Roberts’ use of language in his contemplation of dawn and dusk in all their magnitude.
