Wet wipes, what is it about wet wipes? I really would ban them!

This is a glorious piece of embroidery- Clare Hunter talks a lot about it in her book Embroidering Her Truth and also in her interview on Haptic and Hue.

Are these your clothes? There’s a good chance they are. Every week tonnes and tonnes of garments discarded by people in America and Europe end up here on Ghana’s beaches. How did they get here and how can we stop this? Coming this Thursday on www.hapticandhue.com/listen

My heart goes out to Zelensky and Ukraine - but I know that these two bullies - Trump and Putin - will fail as so many have failed before to extinguish Ukraine - it lives on in the hearts and minds of its people beautifully expressed in the incredible stitched work

Last night in the company of Ukraine’s Scottish Community - couldn’t have been in a finer place with a better set of people - a wonderful celebration of Ukrainian & Scots identity
