Husb and I spent a couple of days in Somerset, mainly at Wookey Hole which, apart from the fantastic caves, also has a museum paper mill. We had a really excellent demonstration and history of the mill, which unfortunately stopped making paper in 2008, but the shop still stocks the lovely handmade sheets in various sizes and types. I couldn’t resist adding to my paper collection – yeah I’m weird like that.
One that caught my fancy was this lovely pale blue deckle edge made from denim offcuts, which is a great way of using a waste product. I bought some but I’m not sure yet what I’m going to do with it. Linocut print maybe? Or a drawing?
Raising Funds.
My family is raising money for Phil, a younger relative of mine, to have life-changing surgery in Spain. Phil is disabled by Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS) and the operation he needs isn’t currently available in the UK. I know times are hard, but if you’re able to spare a bob or two, please click here find out more or to donate a small amount to Phil’s crowdfunding campaign. Thank you xxx
Trying Out A Change
I’m having a go at new templates for my website so I’ll be changing them a few times over the next couple of weeks to see how I get on with them. If there’s one you really like, or dislike, please let me know . Thanks x

What a beautiful blue color. What a clever way to recycle blue jeans.
Yes it is. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough demand for it and the paper mill closed production in 2008 😦
