May has been a none stop print-fest, from custom orders to commissioned work then the culmination of my AA2A artist residency at Sheffield Hallam. It’s all been a bit of a whirlwind really. Here is some of the work I’ve been doing… I can’t share with you some of the commissioned work I’ve been doing… Read more »
I’ve had quite a few orders of the Knitting print fabrics over the past few days in my shops, wonder where that came from? Maybe I’ve been linked from somewhere. It’s got me thinking though, I really should print these in some other colours (and also I’m contemplating getting a metre screen made for this… Read more »

All three are test printed first on unbleached calico, the final designs are then printed… Read more »
Last week I was a very busy gal. One thing I was determined to fit into my week though was finally putting some scrap packs of fabric together. I have a huge pile of hand printed offcuts which I use for a variety of different things but my collection is now completely out of control… Read more »
