Jenny Leigh
Yesterday I went to a talk by an artist I have only recently discovered Jenny Leigh. I think many of you who look at my blog would like her work. Her talk was fascinating and very moving as is her work. Check her out at https://www.jennyleigh.co.uk/ Its her more recent work on totems and tokens of gratitude that I am particularly drawn to.

Gardens of the Heart
My contribution to the Gardens of the Heart project by India Flint for h.ART. My line says 'and through the wood the wandering path'. Each participant is stitching a line of poetry, which will be stitched together with two other lines to make a three line poem. None of us know the contributions of others the results should be fascinating.

Small steps
The cleaning up of the driftwood is progressing slowly, there are some lovely colours which will be brought out when I reach the waxing stage.
The beginning of my weaving for The Quilt Show at the NEC next year where I am taking part in a joint exhibition. The piece uses nettle and plant dyed british wool yarn. Certain similarities in shaping to the driftwood perhaps.
