So I guess I should fill in a few of the details. I live in Orkney which is a tiny group of islands off the north of Scotland and from here I run a studio designing and making a range of hand-printed textiles. I’ve got lots of exciting changes planned for the business over the next few months and hope you’ll come along for the ride.
One of my new projects has been setting up a wee studio shop in my workshop and the printed leaves fabric on the print table has become a lovely curtain to tidy up the sink area in the workshop. Unfortunately the sink is at the door and although the inks I use are all non-toxic and water based, I wouldn’t want anyone to spoil their clothes by getting ink on them.
Until the end of September my studio at the Old Academy (in the town of Stromness) will be open Wednesday and Friday afternoons 2.30-5pm. I’m not sure how often I’ll open in the winter, it does get pretty quiet around here once the weather becomes more wintery.
Posted: September 3rd, 2008 in hand-printing, inside the studio, it's all me, me, me.

Hello!! Just got your lovely comment on our blog. Thanks so much! I flicked over to yours and was immediately intrigued and excited – and have added you to my sidebar
What a great looking table you have there! Looks a little more advanced than our humble manual table
The curtain is a great idea, I think we need to make something similar
