About

I’m pleased you have found your way here!

Inspired by colour and pattern and passionate about world makers and textiles, I value most highly all things made by hand.

These forces have combined in my fabric packs, small edition stitching kits and handmade items.

Making with your own hands brings pleasure, calms the heart rate and imbues each piece with love.

My colours may be subtle or bold but they seldom shout, and I delight in offering you inspiring materials to explore and create with.

🌈Good morning!
A woolly rainbow start to this rainy day
A new selection of dyed vintage wool blanket pieces is in the shop…
Making time for creativity…
It may look like my life is full of it - stitching samples, designing kits, printing, creating tours et al.
But time for me stuff is always limited, and too easily squandered.
This morning I watched Jane of Snapdragon Life as she ran an hour long session entitled About Time. She spoke such good sense!

Good morning! 
…..
Sunshine, birdsong, peace

More precious than ever
A very fine extended Sunday brunch and knit/stitch session with pals, followed by a less fun weed-attacking session chez Tart. 
These irises ask for nothing and delight me every year 🤗

I’ve missed my stitching! 
Working on a little sample for a new mini kit, listening to birdsong (and unprovoked barking🐾) on a sunny Friday afternoon. 
Simple pleasures 🪡🧵
I succumbed to some lovely wool threads naturally dyed by @woollenflower when I saw her last week.
Together with salvaged flowery tissue paper from a wee @asapoth purchase they make a pretty picture with another treat to self.  @porridgebrain Josie George’s new book was waiting for me when I got home 🤗
The inspiring studio of Jane Harlington, @bluepigstudio 
One of my favourite memories of the Outer Hebrides tour🤗
💙
Home from tour, via @tangledgalashiels where I fleetingly caught up with lots of vendor friends. 
Didn’t hesitate over this lush shade by @caithnessyarns from Graeme’s happy sheepies!
