RED SERIES

These red pieces are inspired by the long history of the Silk Road and the many cultures that were involved with trade along it.
Hand made textiles still identify many cultural groups along that long route and the value placed on stitched everyday objects is wonderful.

These small silk pieces are my gems.
They have been a pleasure to design and stitch - especially because they were produced when the fruits named were in season!
