I live in a small 240 year old cottage in the beautiful rural Cotswolds, England, with my partner and four cats. I design, paint and make toys. I also enjoy making bread, cakes, chutneys and jam. We try (not always successfully!) to grow our own veg. I own thousands of books, and they are piled up the walls.
If you'd like to read more and see where I live , please visit my blog, Middle of Nowhere
My needle felt toys which you can see in my account, have their own picture books, published by Templar UK. 'Mrs Mouse's Cupcakes' and 'Peggy's Lost Pennies' are the first in the series and available to buy onling.
My latest work can be seen at my website

My felt and textile toys, artworks, cards and lino prints can be found in
Red Flannel Elephant Designs
