This week I’ve started a new commission for Harefield Hospital . and made some dye bundles at the first community workshop The patchwork continues to grow (on the cat, as usual!) I rarely get a day just stitching, so attending a workshop on Indian embroidery was a real treat this week. …

Daily Make (15 & 16)
I reworked The Beauty of Stains, making the stains permanent through stitch. I’ve made a lot of paper pieced patchwork for Narrative Threads. I’ve started a birthday present for my mum but I’m not going to show it here in case she looks. I know she doesn’t look at Instagram. …
