About Me

My photo
Primrose Hill
I moved to Alyth with my husband and 2 cats almost 8 years ago, we'd decided to make the "move to the sticks" and do up an old cottage with a bit of land. We've extended the family to include 19 hens, 3 cockerels, 2 geese, 2 ducks,an old collie and a black lab. I am a designer/maker working out of my fab little studio in the garden, making my own range of textile homewares and fashion accessories, most of which include my freehand embroideries inpsired by life in the countryside. I am also a full time mummy to my one year old daughter, Stella.
