Welcome to my Gallery where I can share with you some of my creations.
​
I have always enjoyed handcrafts, I was taught to sew, knit and crochet by my mother. I would follow instructions and patterns to produce items. It was only when I went to University did I discover a freedom of expression. There were techniques to learn and instructions to follow but once the loom was dressed it was time to explore.
This remains my passion.
My creations may begin following a tried and tested structure but through experimenting with fibres and exploring the structure I am able to create.
Woollen Scarf. Crammed and spaced technique - the weave structure is tightly packed at the outer edges and gradually becomes more loosely sett towards the centre.
Price £60. 29cm x 244cm. Sold at Framtpon Country Fair
Two more examples of the Crammed and Spaced technique.
This time in cotton.
Price £40. 20cm x 118cm.
Green & Yellow sold at Frampton Country Fair
A variation of the Crammed and Spaced technique.
A woollen scarf with a rust coloured warp and navy blue weft. Price £60. 37cm x 226cm
These two scarves are woven from tencel, a fibre created from woodpulp. The technique is Echo and Iris, which creates an iridescence to the fabric. Soft and silky.

Lambswool scarf. The structure began as a pinwheel design but by playing with the pattern on the loom I have created this variation.(sold at Rural Living Show)
