It has been quite a year for our family, welcoming a new member.I am looking forward to the shorter days turning into longer ones and spending time with family and friends this season.

I was delighted to be an invited artist by the Japan Quilt Society to the World Quilt Festival in Yokohama recently. Although I wasn’t able to attend I received some wonderful photos and feedback.

I have been really busy this autumn working all over the UK – mostly with private groups but also at some lovely venues – I have enjoyed catching up with colleagues and students. I have given talks and a variety of workshops and would like to thank all the groups and course providers for looking after me so well!

Courses for 2025 are here, and there are a few spaces left on two at West Dean London and West Dean College in December and January if you are tempted!

I was delighted to be selected as an exhibitor in the prestigious Broderers Exhibition from 25 Feburary to 2 March in London at the Bankside Gallery. Looking forward to it!

If you are in London, my favourite Knitting and Stitching shop Loop has some Vintage Quilt Houses for sale, handmade and stitched, great for seasonal gifting!

I am pleased to be exhibiting two pieces for different challenges with the Embroiderers Guild at the Knitting and Stitching Show in Harrogate, including the winner of the Jane Lemon Prize, Maryam/Miriam, pictured above.

I’ve got some kits for sale on my website shop and have just added this horse to the mix. They are proving popular!

Happy Stitching all x
