please stand clear of the closing doors

On November 22nd I heard the sentence through the phone that every parent dreads to hear. "Are you James' mum?...He has been in an accident. You need to come quickly..." Our son, 19 was involved in a serious accident. We were on the scene in 6 minutes and held him until the ambulance and helicopter arrived and supported him while his condition was stabilised enough for him to be airlifted to hospital. Every minute waiting in the family room of Intensive Care was a torment that no human should endure, yet every moment waiting, ironically meant there was a greater chance that he had survived.

colour mixing fun

I have just had the best fun experimenting with getting some ‘Kimberley rust/browns/reds’ and have found that by using just 3 colours I can get so many of these beautiful shades. This is just a small sample of the selection of the possibilities available when I mixed Phlalo Blue(red), Cadmium Red Deep Hue and Cadmium Orange Hue. This is so exciting!

play

I was asked at an artist talk which I presented recently how I came up with all my ideas. I think what is really important for me is play. There are many different aspects of play in my life. Laughing and having fun with my husband, boys and friends, and then there is playing through exploration of subject matter, location, equipment and settings. I’m always exploring a new way to look and think about things, and I continue to do this through the lens by experimentation. A lot of the time the images are duds, but every now and then a gem appears, and something in my belly knows I have touched on something which deserves further exploration.

𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭 | 𝐇𝐞𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐓𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐬 Luxury Handwoven Blankets 🌏Stories from life & global adventures 🧩Woven into unique collector pieces Explore ⬇️
  • Life goes fast; with curveballs; and accompanying that for me has been a reflection of my life and the memory of the lyrics of Pink Floyd’s ‘Time’; a song I grew up with.

I am so grateful to have experienced so much living, and recalling this song recently has reminded me that despite some life challenges; I still must not fritter a single second of my life away. 

There has been a time where we haven’t been able to travel and experience the world and myself as I would have liked, but there are other ways that I can ensure I don’t waste my time alive!

I am a creator. A teacher. A storyteller. A traveller. A photographer. A weaver. A knitter. A maker. I need to keep creating. Celebrating my life is still as important now as it was a few years ago! 

So, I quietly reflect. With gratitude. 

Share this with someone you think may like this quiet reminder.
  • Who would have thought you needed to be fit as a weaver; as you can see, this specific exercise is imperative for lifting one’s yarn collection. Let all your friends know about this! 

What other exercises do you think I should do? 

Come follow along for my weaving tips and ideas. I may even make you laugh.
  • There’s a very important quality necessary for being a weaver, and being fit is one of them! As you can see, specific exercises are imperative for lifting one’s yarn resources. Let all your friends know about this! 

Come follow along for my weaving tips and ideas. I may even make you laugh.
  • The door has shut; want quiet, no traffic, don’t want to talk to anyone and just stay home and do the things you want to do; like spinning, weaving, knitting, crafting; but feel like you should be getting dressed out of your pj’s, and going out to at least have a coffee???

You could role play like I did. Lol you can save this as a reminder that you don’t have to go out today at all!!! Follow to see my next studio ‘outing’.

One can never be overdressed wherever you are! Pop on your bling and do your thing!
So it’s all sorted then? Welcome! 
  • Oops. Save this as a reminder if you ever accidentally missed some slots threading your reed; that it’s only a little oopsie. No biggie! 

It’s an easy fix as long as you find the perfect weight to keep the replaced threads the same tension as the rest of the warp. 

Always surprises here in my studio. Need a bit more of that? Come join in!

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!

The door has shut; want quiet, no traffic, don’t want to talk to anyone and just stay home and do the things you want to do; like spinning, weaving, knitting, crafting; but feel like you should be getting dressed out of your pj’s, and going out to at least have a coffee??? You could role play like I did. Lol you can save this as a reminder that you don’t have to go out today at all!!! Follow to see my next studio ‘outing’. One can never be overdressed wherever you are! Pop on your bling and do your thing! So it’s all sorted then? Welcome!

Oops. Save this as a reminder if you ever accidentally missed some slots threading your reed; that it’s only a little oopsie. No biggie! 

It’s an easy fix as long as you find the perfect weight to keep the replaced threads the same tension as the rest of the warp. 

Always surprises here in my studio. Need a bit more of that? Come join in!

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!
