Ever been stuck knowing where to start a project. ‘What I saw’ is often a good place to start.
Your journeys can be wonderful source material for your projects. Save this as a reminder for your own weaving and if you’re just visiting my space here, come follow along to see what I weave from my journeys.
This blanket I’ve woven was inspired by a road trip driving our 100 year old vintage Vauxhall from Bangkok to London. We broke down in Kyrgyzstan after driving rough Tibet for a month; but that’s another story!

I’m a weaver. Artist. Traveller. Photographer. Bad*ss sassy weaver actually! Simple tools. Ashford rigid heddle. Gorgeous handwoven blankets, and 3 ground rules for my content! I’m just being totally REAL! Welcome along!

You won’t find any granny blankets here! This is the part that most people miss when making things, and I’ve found that’s the case with so many fellow weavers. What’s missing is Fun! Laughter! A bit of humor! Want some of that! Come follow along.
Life’s too short to not have fun in the process, right! Let me know what you think, and come join in the fun!

Simple tools- my rigid heddle loom is what I use to weave these beautiful soulful blankets.
