Thank you Dublin

Thank you Dublin and all at ‘Being in Action’. It was a joy to be with you as weaver in residence. The energy and care with which you engaged with me fashioning beautiful travel sticks, weaving willow circles and loving my work is very precious. I return to my studio buzzing with ideas. I look forward to developing connections made, making and sending orders and to more opportunities to be weaver in residence.
