Good egg?
A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked. – Bernard Meltzer
Have a look for other pearls of wisdom or quirky quotes on my fave quotes page.
Here’s one of my early favourites:
“IT WASN’T A DARK AND STORMY NIGHT. It should have been, but that’s the weather for you.
For every mad scientist who’s had a convenient thunderstorm just on the night his Great Work is finished and lying on the slab, there have been dozens who’ve sat around aimlessly under the peaceful stars while Igor clocks up the overtime.”
— Terry Pratchett (Good Omens)

News of latest stitching ranges
No sooner had the Kāpiti Coast Art Trail (November 2024) – for which I stitched a lot of new fibre artworks, including Vivid Forests – ended when it was time to prepare for the Kāpiti Arts and Crafts Society’s Christmas-New Year Exhibition in Kāpiti Gallery.
I completed two triptychs: Gum Tree Triptych (ii) because I’ve decided not to sell the first one, and Black and Red Villages Triptych (i), the latest in my Quirky Villages series, and began a new Yuletide range, an evolution from my Vivid Forests!
The next couple of Yuletide works will be variations on Christmas Candles, either in groups of three or quartets representing the liturgical Hope, Peace, Joy and Love – works in progress just now.



Fabulous feedback
Here are some of the comments from visitors to my “artist in studio” display as part of the Kapiti Coast Art Trail 2024:
What an amazing display. Love the jewellery.
Great colourful display!
Absolutely beautiful artworks and jewellery. Joyful and heartwarming to look at.
Beautiful work, well worth a visit.
Amazing, unique style – really cool.
We really enjoyed seeing your art – you have such a lovely and lively way of using colour, shapes and texture.
I really appreciated this feedback, and the visitors who took the time to write in my comments book – thank you!
