​The Dept. of Homeland Security thwarted my planned trip to Chicago last week and so I have additional time in the UK. I have decided to hold some alfresco workshops during this time and if you have a specific workshop that you would like to attend you can contact me and we can set it up. If you have a specific requirement I can tailor a workshop to cover it. I can accommodate you both midweek and at weekends. We will be outdoors under gazebos and so social distancing and other precautions will be easy to achieve.

Once you have given me topics and dates I will advertise them to allow others to join us if they wish.

In response to requests I have produced a new batch of greeting cards with the full "Odd is Good, Quirky is Better, Weird is Best" message on the front. It can be seen here and purchased here. In response to the current climate I have added "Imbroglio" & "Farrago" to my Greetings Card range. They can be seen here and they may be purchased in my Greetings Card shop here.

I have designed a new shoulder bag with an adjustable strap which is available in my Lockdown Stuff.

I continue to add  new designs to my Lockdown Stuff shop. 

I have been asked to make some Face Masks. You can see examples  here and under Commissions . I have included some in my Lockdown Stuff shop


All of my products are available in my on line shop:

Many show organisers have moved online temporarily but they are optimistic of holding events as the year progresses. I will continue to keep my schedule of bookings for this year up to date accordingly. Some of the Amdur shows in Chicagoland have been rescheduled for later in the year and the new dates are also reflected in this schedule.
 
I have an ongoing requirement for new or used envelopes. All sizes are welcome and any quantities will be gratefully received.  I am also always grateful for any hard back books or fabrics you are able to donate. Hopefully we will soon be able to make arrangements to deliver or for me to collect your offerings.

I have had an unprecedented long run of continuous garden time and have been able to complete a comprehensive weeding, thinning out and cutting back exercise throughout the garden. I continue to add photos to the Garden page of my website. I also have a special page of items related to Gardening on my website which is here.

​I normally try out new designs on my stall at shows and fairs. However, this has not been possible this year and so I am introducing a new category in my web shop - Lockdown Stuff. I will add new designs here as they become available. As with much of my output each piece is unique and so when sold it has gone!
