Cicada purse
I made this cicada purse at a workshop with Sylvia Critcher in 2005. I used a combination of patchwork cotton materials and shiny silk remnants.

Christmas decorations - bobbin lace technique
These are unusual Christmas decorations using the bobbin lace technique with gold threads and a gold tassel. I made these in the 1980's.

Dragonfly stained glass patchwork
This is a piece of stained glass patchwork of a dragonfly and lily which I made at a workshop with Gail Lauther in 2004.

Patchwork waistcoat
I made this waistcoat in 1990 using a new technique called Japanese folded patchwork. Every time I wear it, it is much admired.

Exercise in surface decoration This small square (6" x 6") was an exercise in surface decoration with a variety of threads, beads etc which I stitched at the NEC Festival of Quilts in Birmingham in August 2005.

It was an interesting challenge to complete in the allotted time.

Little modern book
This little modern 'black work' book was made in an early workshop in 1990. The 'R' stands for my husband's name, Richard and the 'M' is of course me!

Miniature garden
This octagonal picture is a miniature garden hand-stitched using a variety of colours and stitches including chain, stem, running and French knots.

It was made at a workshop on miniature gardens in 1993.

Clematis wall hanging
This is a wall hanging which I call Clematis and I made it in 2005. It measures approximately 34" square.
