First, some pictures!

| The view from my patio. If it ever warms up, I can imagine this being Studio B for me. |
 |
| The view from the road. It's pretty here. |
 |
| Found these by the side of the driveway. Intriguing space alien seed pods that were later identified as treasels or treasles. Apparently they were used to comb or full wool before metal carders came into play. No wonder I was drawn to them! |
 |
| Studio A. It was feeling a bit antiseptic until I filled it with blankets. Ahhh…much better now. |
 |
| Please don't ask. |
It has been 18 years or more since I made studio-based work. The simple and obvious reason is that it felt impossible with first one, then two, young children. Adapting to circumstance, I developed a way of working that allowed me to carry on while caring for babies, then toddlers, then homeschooling older children. To be honest, I am finding it a little overwhelming to have all this time and space and materials and No Excuses.
I am making stuff - drawings, objects, textile pieces. But what is it? Perhaps best not to ask!
