Salisbury Cathedral

A couple of weekends ago I went to Salisbury for the day and visited the cathedral. It was extremely beautiful and very inspiring. I definitely recommend a visit.

Beautiful tiled flooring


Amazing old flags - I could create a whole project around these aged flags, the colours and textures were amazing. I just love aged textiles.

Happy New Year!

I hope you had a great Christmas and New Year. I have been rather hopeless with blogging over the last month or so as I have started a teaching job. I'm teaching a bit of textiles, graphics, resistant materials and Food in a local secondary school. It has been hard work so I haven't had much chance to do any of my own work but I am determined to find time in my evenings and weekends to dedicate to my textiles! I am currently working on my sketchbook for the Sketchbook Project, the deadline is the end of this month so I better get a move on! I will post some images of my progress here soon.
Here's to a happy, healthy and creative New Year!
