Art in Bloom
Welcome to my website that displays my eclectic mix of creative activities.
Hand-spinning wool from locally-sourced British sheep, Alpaca fleeces and tops from British fibre suppliers. These include, Bluefaced Leicester, Shetland, Southdowns, Cashmere, Portland and Hebridean.
Hand-dyeing different fibres using acid and natural dyes.
Hand-knitting a range of knitwear including lace-weight scarves and mittens using my own knitting pattern designs.
Watercolours of flowers that grow in my garden.
Glass painting designs on a variety of surfaces.
Latch hook rug-making creating wall hangings using a latch hook.
Picture Framing using professional equipment.
I live in West Sussex and regularly take part in the Chichester Open Studios Art Trail and local Craft Fayres. Details can be found on the exhibitions page.
I am currently spinning 100% Mulberry Silk tops, a Shetland fleece, and knitting Japanese-inspired mittens.
