Hard at it..

If only there were more hours of daylight at the moment! Hand embroidery and the darkness do not mix well. I cannot let this stop me as I really have my work cut out..

All of these Lavender stars are en route to The National Centre for Craft and Design, in Sleaford, Lincolnshire just in time to be part of their Christmas exhibition in the shop.

It's back to the needle and thread for now as I continue to make work for Made By Hand. This runs from 2-4th December and is at Tredeger House, Newport, South Wales.

Hello Sheffield..

I've just delivered a box of work to the Millennium Gallery, Sheffield for this upcoming exhibition,

'A feast of original craft and design, Christmas Crackers provides an inspired alternative to the High Street for this year’s Christmas shopping. Choose affordable gifts, from beautiful jewellery to stylish glassware and ceramics, all hand-made by UK-based craftspeople.'

Have a look here for more info on the exhibition and other lovely stuff that's happening at the Millennium Gallery.

Hello again Leeds!

This week I have sent a parcel of work off to The Craft Centre And Design Gallery in Leeds for general display in the shop there. I did my Art Foundation course in Leeds at The College of Art before going to Uni in Manchester, it feels good to have work in a city where you once studied, knowing that it all contributed to where/who you are now..

In the local area

Yesterday I delivered some pieces of work to a new stockist, Gallery Top, in Rowsley, Derbyshire. This is a lovely little gallery in a beautiful setting selling mainly ceramics, jewellery, painting and sculpture.

I've been wanting to get some work in a gallery close to where I live for a while now so lets' see how it is received!
