My Activities

I am a textile artist living in Somerset, South West England. I love everything to do with fabric, threads, yarn and mixed media. I'm a member of the newly formed TextileSet, a group of enthusiastic stitchers from Dorset & Somerset, the online group Near & Far, West Country Embroiderers and Quirky Quilters.
I love the county of Somerset and enjoy walking my dog, Indie. I travel with her around England and France at every opportunity and we both have fun in our 'cottage garden'

More Travel Than Blogging - Part One

Well this year I've certainly been all over the place - that's travelling, not unorganized.  I maybe have not achieved as much embroidery, sewing and quilting as I'd like but I've definitely seen some wonderful places.  Back in April of 2018, I visited the county of Cornwall for five days.  I wanted to get down to enjoy this magical place again as I'd not been since 1997; I wanted to visit a dear friend who'd moved there about five years ago and also because it was where I'd spent my honeymoon.  I can't say that I was disappointed but I feel it had changed very much and the south coast in particular just didn't seem as welcoming and inviting as before - very commercialized now.  I came home via the north coast and along through north Devon and can say that I enjoyed this part of the trip more. Anyway, here are some of the photos of the trip.
