It's International Women's Day and it's also #FemaleFoundersMonth, and along with Holly Tucker of Holly & Co., I want to encourage you to back female founders! The power really is in your purse - you can vote with your money for the kind of world you want to live in...

As an aside, I am genuinely happy by how many more pied wagtails I see across the city nowadays - they're such cheeky little birds and they seem to be more at home on city streets and by stations 🐦

Final tally:

2x wood pigeon
1x blackbird
4x crow
4x parakeet
2x Herring gull
1x feral pigeon

Not brilliant, but better than nothing! #BigGardenBirdwatch

Several smaller birds have zipped overhead, but none have landed - the weather here isn't great, and although there's more foliage on the big tree than this time last year, there's still not much shelter for them...

I think there must be some announcement when I sit down to count, all the birds in the area make themselves scarce... I saw two wood pigeon fly off, and that's the only sign of life so far!

My husband told me there was a massive bunch of starlings in that tree yesterday, I said of course there would be on the day I'm not counting 🙄

I had to sit with this one for a while to make sure it was done, but I've reached the point where I know if I add anything more, it will be ruined!
Visitors to the gallery have unanimously told me this is a calming piece 💙

As with many art forms, there's more to it than meets the eye. I'm very proud of this showcase of works featuring fabric, fibre and thread, co-curated with Elly Platt.

So many visitors who have stepped over the gallery threshold in the last couple of weeks have at first proclaimed that 'textile art isn't really my thing'. What's lovely is that by the time they've had a look around & a chat, there's a lightbulb moment that textile art *isn't just one thing*... 💡
