Thank you to @johnapedder for his Boogie print which I've delivered to my son Evan for his 25th. He's now an ancient man but I remember him winning a dancing competition at the Neuadd in Penrhyn way back in time! I love this print- packed full of energy and bursting from its frame. #dancingman #blockprint #ilovewales 
Brixham Museum (holiday!). This process is called 'Barking'. A mix of powdered oak bark, ochre (iron oxide found locally), linseed oil, tannin and tar heated and brushed onto the sails to preserve them. The sails were hung on old ships' masts to dry. The ochre gave the distinctive red tint to local sails. #natural dyes #sailingships #ochre #oak #redsails #Brixhamharbour

My home studio relies on this one window but....if I squint madly....kid myself hugely.... the Mediterranean is at my doorstop. #homestudio #daydreaming #textileprinting 
International china fragment hunting! My daughter found this yesterday on a beach on a tiny island off north west Japan. The browny bit is a fish's tail. #japanesetreasure #farawaydaughter #chinafragments 
No3 in a different colourway - enjoyed this, using more/less ink on the block and playing around with the pressure. #chinafragments #playingwithprint #pinks #yellows #pinkandyellow #smallbatchtextiles #linoprinting #blockprintedtextiles
