Weaving is a fascinating craft with so many possibilities. I started by weaving tapestries on a frame and then moved onto weaving rugs on a four shaft loom before becoming involved with fabric weaving. At present I am mainly weaving scarves, wraps and pictures. Visitors are always welcome to see my work at my home.
I have recently introduced weaving together with braiding and needle felting at Restore's therapeutic centre in Didcot. For more information about Restore visit http://www.restore.org.uk/
