What do you create? How did you get started and what motivated you to start?
Hand Block Printed and Sewn Fabric Items.
My passion for working with Textiles has, over the years, led me through different
phases of designing and creating Fabric-based items.
I was fascinated with the art of Hand Block Printing when I visited the textile cottage
industry in India where the ancient art of printing, using hand carved wooden blocks
originated. The fact that I could create my own prints and style intrigued me.
Working with a range of different textiles and participating in Craft markets has given
me a sense of the demands of the current times.
Cheerful Corner Book Marks, Pen Holder Book Marks, Tote bags, Backpacks, DIY Craft Party Banners, Journal Covers with a positive message.

Dear Gloria: My beautiful banner promptly arrived yesterday and I was astonished at your skill and handiwork. I love it! Today, the banner will be placed in my She-Shed and then I will send you a picture. Thank you so much for extra gift. I love birds and you knew that from all the bird houses in the back yard. Thank you for being so thoughtful! I have decided not to stamp any words on the squares. Why mess with perfection?
