Magic Cloths and Worry Heads

Use Your Hands For Happiness: 2019

#fbf spaces wait to be filled with shapes - and p #fbf 
spaces wait to be filled with shapes - and possibility. Playful rhythms. Jostling forms. Looking for … a place to rest ? Playful in the most serious sense you understand. 🤓 
…
sometimes I wonder if my work is always about everything that is this book + my grandmother. 
Sources + seeds + germinations

Hello hello if you are a new person here 👋 . And if you’ve been to my website you’ll see that my online shop is closed atm. I am focussing on a new body of work. I say a ‘body of work’ which sounds important - but it’s probs more like a collection of disparate thoughts , wrought together with fabric colour and ink, made into things - all the fragments - and some that aren’t fragmented. 
🔸
In the meantime there are still some available works on paper and cloth - so please send me an email if you are interested in purchasing - and I’ll have a looksy + and we can see if there is anything I’ve got you might want. 
🔸
Friday best wishes to you xx

salt wind- sunrise horizons - trees+ flying - couching wool - studio - time passes - outside inside

Nb:a good embroidery needle is small and nimble but with a bigger eye - for heavier threads stranded cottons wools etc .
to self: however, couching through thicker layers - would have been easier with a bigger needle.
