Creatively I have never been busier, stitching one day and the next it's trying to get back to the sketch book.
A lot of my energy at the moment is devoted to working on commissions, which include a hospital.
I am delighted that the brief was landscape, bringing the outside in, this work is in progress and I hope to share it with you soon.
The work above is another project which is also in mid flow.
Yesterday I spent a day at a school talking about landscapes in art history and running a workshop.
I shared how I use different materials to create landscapes in my own work.
I get so excited about working with the threads, fibres, using layers of colour, stitching rhythmically into the cloth to form shapes.
Despite my garden being a jungle and my house full of cobwebs I still have to make time to stitch!

I just discovered your blog via Dot Christian (dot with the lot blog), and so glad I did, your stitching is just beautiful!
Wonderful golden threads. This is so beautiful and filled with details...Angelika
Beautiful work!
When you're long gone, people won't remember your dusty house and overgrown garden, they will remember your work, and smile.
