Taught a free motion doodling class today at Top Ryde Hobbysew. It was fun and the students have gone home full of ideas and the instructions to keep practicing.

This ended up as a pocket on one of my quilted jackets.
I have been making things all my life.
Sewing when I was young. Knitting and crocheting in my teenage years. In the last few years I have been doing a lot more freeform work, scrumbling, beading, quilting and now fabric punching. I don't like rules, but accept that you need to know what they are so you know when you are able to bend or break them.
I was born in Scotland, and emigrated to Australia in 1986. We live in the Northern Beaches of Sydney. I am married and have 2 children and a cat - who knows when I am busy and that is when she wants attention.
