Dream in colour, create in fabric, thread, yarn, words, whatever you have to hand
Welcome to another Wool on Sundays already! When I was a child, the grown ups used the expression ‘not in a month on Sundays’ to mean pretty much never but now I feel as if it’s Sunday every other day! They also used to say ‘Time goes faster when you get old.’ :( I enjoyed hearing […]

Without giving much away, I can say that, when I reached the binding stage, I thought it was a bit too flimsy. Rather than adding […]
Read More…Welcome to Wool on Sundays again – I feel as if Sundays are coming round more quickly every week! This week the world is very much bluer than we’ve seen it in a long, long time. A couple of days of torrential rain excepted, we’ve had wonderful blue skies and the woods are a carpet of […]
