Well...here we go !

Welcome to my blog. This will be a place where I share what i'm up to, what projects I have on the go and what has inspired me that day or week. I am an avid maker and up cycler and love to get stuck into something new. I , like a lot of makers, am easily bored so can skip from one thing to another but will try to see a project through to the bitter end here. This will prove to be a good thing for me and force me to finish "stuff" !  I have a degree in Textile Design specialising in Embroidery so a lot of my work  has stitch added for texture and colour rather than perfect needlepoint which some might expect now !  I am foremost a sewer and nothing excites me more than discovering a new fabric shop to find more fabric to add to my stash . I have been a florist for many years so you may find some flowery inspiration on here too !!     A few samples produced for various projects while studying for my degree
