Came across this feature from @booooooom! and was astonished to see that it’s from 15 years ago, featuring work from the first 10 years of my art career.

I’ve done so much work but I have so many projects still living in my head! I’m grateful that I am still excited about secondhand clothing and looking forward to the exhibitions I have scheduled for 2026.

This is number 2 of 4 of my latest music collection. A red candy apple Fender Stratocaster hand-stitched onto white aida fabric.

Hand-stitched a Shure 55SH mic, better known as the Elvis mic as part of my new music collection. Really happy with how it turned out. it's 1 of 4 new designs I've made over the past few months.

I keep forgetting to mention that there is a new #textileart group on fedigroups. You have to be following in order to post to it. I'm using it and I hope all my fellow #textileartist s do similar

Another finished project. Freeform crochet inspired by dragons - 7 large dragons eyes and a couple of nostrils in there and lots of patches of crocodile stitch. Now hiding my tatty but comfortable conservatory chair!

Finished! The shawl inspired by the old churchyard in Stirling is done. No posh yarn in this one but lots of surface work. Ended up more cosplay than everyday! Thinking abstract gravestones, lichen, dying leaves, rowan berries, hips, bindweed, spiders' webs and snail shells. One for next Halloween! As ever, no pattern.

Start of a new project - batwing-sleeved top. The plan - 2 setting suns (a la Tattoine) in these glorious oranges, pinks and golds on the front and waxing, waning and full moons on the back (maiden, mother, crone) in greys, black and blues. All DK or 4-ply, merino mix or BFL, most hand dyed by independents.
