Themed Journals

Aprons
Shoulder bags
Textile Collages with Calligraphy

If you have any queries relating to your purchase do not hesitate to email me to discuss your requirements.

If you fancy a bargain there are plenty of offers in my website shop. I keep separate stocks in the UK and the US. Therefore, UK customers seeking bargains should browse here and US customers seeking bargains should browse here.

I am able to mail to US customers until Monday 23 January. I will be able to mail to UK customers from Thursday 26 January.

Following customer requests, I have made some collage packs of my Three Colour Print "Umbrella Girl". Each paper pack contains fifteen images and the textile packs have twelve pieces. They may be purchased in my shop here for the textile version and here for the paper version. I have also been replenishing my stocks of Art Nouveau, Art Deco and Weird pieces in addition to the rest of my range. You can order Textile Collage Pieces here and Paper Collage Pieces here.

I have a large bag of about 100 commercially produced rubber stamps mounted on wooden blocks which I am happy to pass on for free to anyone who is able to use them. They could be useful for school or youth groups as well as personal work. However, you must be able to collect them from Evanston! Contact me for details. I will have a similar offer for UK based makers when I get back in February.

I continue to add to my range of Greetings Cards and have retired some designs.  My current range can be purchased online here. I am selling the retired designs in mixed packs of 20 for just £10! They may be purchased here, at the end of the page.

I can produce a customised version of any of my products which you may want for a special occasion. Examples of previous commissions can be seen here. Email me to discuss your ideas.

I am in the process of applying to shows and fairs and my progress and confirmed dates can be seen here.

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 including atlases or maps  and fabrics including coloured bed sheets that you are able to donate. I can also use in my printing any papers or card such as calendars, unused paper pads, coffee table books, magazines made from heavy weight paper,  unembossed wallpapers etc. Thanks to Gallery 23 & Bobbie-Jo for their recent contributions.

I have added some photos of this year's events to my web site here. They include customers both new and old showing the bags that they have purchased from me.

I have included some wintery photos of my garden here.
