I am an award winning textile and mixed media artist whose work has been exhibited both nationally and internationally,and has won many prizes including winning the Scottish Quilt Championship in 1998 and the European Quilt Championship in 2006. I had a very successful solo exhibition Colour - Quilts - Collage in Peebles in 2011 which subsequently travelled around the U.K.I have also entered the world of mixed media and my Artist Trading Card (ATC) Enduring, Unending won Best of Show in the House of Cards exhition, Columbus, Ohio, 2005. I worked as a member of the Alpha Stamps Design Team for 4 years from 2007-2010. My art has been published in a wide variety of magazines and books both here in the U.K. and abroad. I'm improving as a photographer by uploading one picture every day to the Blipfoto site and my interest in graveyards has led me to start a separate blog about my local one in West Linton. I'm currently working on making one Journal Quilt every week in 2012; the 52 Journals Project. After years of giving talks and workshops I'm so happy to return to being a full-time studio artist!
