We are getting ready for our next exhibition at the Lansdown Gallery in Stroud; opening on Tuesday 16th April.

Intensive stitched sample for new work.

We have set up the exhibition in the church in Karlsruhe, which is part of the ‘Cross of Nails’ organisation.

Pages in my sketch book from Cumbria. Quinary spent a few days working together at Foxfields on the borders of the Lake district. I collected items and used them to make marks in the sketchbook; these include-slate, seaweed, Marram grass and feathers. This time together was enriching for all of us, hope we can do it again!
