Once upon a time, a bookworm decided to spend her life reading, learning, and sharing everything she learned about early modern fiction and theatre, especially the forgotten women writers who created fantastic fairy tales and gripping plays.

Then the bookworm found knitting, and stitching, and designing, and slowly, between being permitted to wear red and purple in public, and finding a form of happy ever after, she moved to the Malverns and started to design.

My designs are available here, and my adventures in the West Midlands, in sewing, in knitting, in crafting, reading, occasional coding - in building a life which allows creativity and administration to cohabit are shared (sometimes) on my blog.
