It's really tricky to spread the word about events these days! I don't support corporate social media and you don't get read attention there anyway, mailing lists aren't what they once were, and this event wants to reach people across many patterny disciplines..

Any help spreading the word across all the strange pattern-obsessed communities much appreciated!

As a small way to say thank you for all the support for my book 'Drystone - A Life Rebuilt', I’ve made a free, downloadable, and (if I do say so myself) beautiful drystone guide. Read more below and share far and wide!

Free to good home: rubber foam blocking mats, for fibre arts folk. One set of nine, and another incompatible set of nineteen. Southeast Melbourne area. #DebCleanup #knitting #crochet #iibrearts #fiberarts #craft
Square interlocking rubber from mats about 30 cm across.


So here's another print I did of somewhere in Cornwall, this is Coverack.

It is a two colour linocut and was one of my most successful prints.

Definitely inspired by the amazing work of Bryan Angus.

New at my Patreon... The corridors of Fitzroy Library act as an informal art gallery, and this time round they featured brooches - some with quirky crocodiles:

More borders and more road.

I was a bit lost as to what to do in London, but now I have a plan. 🗺️

#crossStitch #sewing #craft
Work in progress cross stitch sampler. The bottom section which is being worked on has a road, a university building surrounded by trees and a London double decker. There is another bus starting to be worked on. This is bounded on the left and right by a decorative border. The top is no visible


Leaving the ponies behind and heading off to university. 😢

#crossStitch #craft
A cross stitch sampler in the middle of being made. At the bottom, below a field of ponies, is a small university building. It looks very small and lonely.


And now we need a fence to keep the ponies in! And of course… more borders.

#crossStitch #craft
Work in progress cross stitch samplers. Lots of animals and trees. Ponies at the bottom are starting to have a fence out underneath them.


And the last of the ponies - another two Haflingers - Nicky and Aurora

#horse #crossStitch #needlework #craft
A partially completed cross stitch sampler. At the bottom there are six ponies- two Haflingers, a bay, a chestnut and another two Haflingers
A Haflinger horse’s head poking out of an open stable door. His coat is a light chestnut and his mane is white. He has a blaze.
A Haflinger mare’s head over a stable door. She has a light chestnut coat and white mane. She also has a large white star and snip


And another pony.

And yes, they have names. Left to right we have Babs, Sailor, Spice and Sandy. Babs and Sailor were Haflingers, Spice was a TBxID (a big fearless mare who would jump anything you pointed her at) and Sandy was a Welsh Section B x Arab and went like the proverbial off a shovel (she jumped ridiculously high fences too).

See. There’s reasons behind all the oddly scaled critters.

#crossStitch #horse #craft #fiberArt
I work in progress Crosstitch sampler. At the top there are leaves and trees and flowers and deer. below that there is four leaf clover, cats, Pigs, acorns and a big flower. then there’s a fence. Below the fence are four ponies two Palominos then a bay and then a chestnut. There’s space on the right for two more ponies.
A bay mare’s head. She’s wearing a bridle and her mane is sticking up (she used to be hogged). This is Spice.
A poor quality picture of a chestnut mare’s head and shoulders. She’s wearing a green rug and has been clipped for winter. This is Sandy


More pig and more cat. More border too.

Completing this by end of year is looking increasingly unlikely. 😔

#crossStitch #craft #wip
A WIP cross stitch sampler. The bottom section has from left to right a four leaf clover, a black cat, a Tamworth pig, an acorn, a red flower, an acorn, a Tamworth pig, a black cat and a four leaf clover. Symmetry in everything…


I messed up somewhere with my holly tree (it’s not in the right place…) 😫

So I’m putting flower stalks in to make sure I can line my trees up properly.

#crossStitch #craft
Cross stitch sampler in the process of being made decorative border, foliage, trees and stags are visible. And at the bottom there are some stalks which will have flowers on them.


Finished the border in the right! Woot!

Just another 54 inches to go! Boo!

#crossStitch #craft
Partially completed cross stitch sampler. Border on the left, top and right is complete. Foliage and one and a half stags in the middle.


You know what? I don’t really like cross stitch and yet here I am again.

#crossStitch #craft #needleWork
A line of half cross stitches (diagonal only) in black on white aida. It doesn’t appear to be very exciting.


This week I have been working on Habbet Binn / Coffee Bean | حبة بن from Gaza and Jaffa (maybe). I'm using brown thread. I got the pattern from this amazing resource:

I'm learning the basics from the Tatreez & Chai classes organized by CPSA London:

@Haneenalbrqouni and I are working on a design that I will embroider for her fundraiser.

Close up photo of a strip of black aida cloth 11 count fabric that has two iterations of the Habbat Binn / Coffee Beans tatreez motif cross-stitched onto it in brown thread. The motif has a centre stem with leaves branching of left and right symmetrical to each other.

The cloth is propped against a white and black keffiyeh used as a background.
The black aida cloth in the previous image has been flipped over to show the back of the stitching, which is fairly neat for a beginner's second piece! The tails are bound to the back by cross-stitches along a line instead of being tied off.


Here is my tatreez progress, I finally finished a piece. This is basically the Bateekh / Watermelon / بطيخ motif but I only used two colours because I'm a beginner.

I am participating in Tatreez and Chai workshops, part of the Threads of Diaspora project organized by CPSA London. Their project is going to be beautiful.

Close up of tatreez cross-stitch embroidery on coarse black fabric.

There are four columns, each with four green watermelons separated by red vines.

The quality of the stitching starts off rather poor but improves somewhat going from left to right.


A recently completed commission for a journal with the theme of neutrality. The page count was higher on this one than I usually do so I made it as a hollow back to allow the pages to drape more nicely.

A white leather journal standing upright on a deck. The journal is open with the spine towards the viewer to show both covers at once. It has a gold design on both covers.


This is the cabinet that I've been working on since May. I still have a few tweaks to make, but it was finished enough to get some Glamour Shots taken.

As soon as I started learning woodworking, I knew that I wanted to do a marquetry pangolin, and I'm really happy with the way it turned out.

Photograph of a tall wooden cabinet. The door of the cabinet has a marquetry image of a pangolin climbing a tree. The cabinet has long legs and stands about six feet tall.
Closer photograph of the same cabinet. The frame of the cabinet is made of cherry. The top of the cabinet is slightly arched, and there are some curved details on the legs of the cabinet.
