Took a trip to this weekend, so lovely to walk down a high street still brimming with creative - well worth a visit ❤️

Took a sunny stroll with my lovely friends around - such a treat and look at this fab Tzatziki we had for lunch, v pretty, delicious food 😋

Love this stage in developing a new range. The rough cuts of my new “Pennycress” Placemats & Coasters have arrived today!
Linen napkins, a circular tray and a canvas washbag still to come...

Easter treat 🐣 - some gorgeous human being has made these magical tiny doors in the trees on the river path opposite Harleyford. Thank you whoever you are!! 💝

If I have one practical piece of advise it is this; never try to accurately reproduce a swallow using 🥔😉
This was my attempt a couple of years ago, I had to use 3 potatoes and stick it all together at the end. I did make a pattern from it but learnt my lesson -

I’m working on a new print ✨ based on the gorgeous, delicate, foliage spray called “Thlaspi”or “Pennycress”
Just playing around with colour ways and repeats....🌿🌿

I give you....”Wren”
Where has been my whole life?
