The reverse pattern shows on the back hence the name Summer and Winter.

I have been experimenting with monoprinting:

Also bookbinding –trying a new style:

And baking new recipes. A healthy bread recipe from a new acquaintance Sue Kerr:

This one I put walnuts in

Member’s Exhibition at Hutt Art Centre

I have 3 pieces in the Member’s Exhibition at the Odlin Gallery in Lower Hutt:

Two Scarves both 100 % Alpaca – beautifully soft.

And another woven piece made from a cotton warp , a linen paper weft and book text weft, mounted on handmade paper.

The piece is called “Imagination Wander” - the idea being that you flick through the text and make up your own story.
