Handwoven Textured Throws
I love to combine a variety of fibres in a textile to create texture as well as colour. There's nothing more satisfying to me than 'painting' with yarn. As I set up my loom I often break every weaving rule in the book. It can be a challenge to get all those threads sorted out but the results are usually worth the tussle.

Silk, linen, cotton, chenille, wool
Examining a stone wall reveals all sorts of interesting shapes, crevices, plants and colours!
Combining chenille, cotton, linen and wool I captured the sunset of an autumn evening on the hillside opposite my studio, something I look at every day watching the light move across it throughout the year.
