4 More tapestries sold
It is a very exciting time for me, I have just sold 4 tapestries with the opportunity of a commission.
I have not been able to weave for about a year due to my late husband's serious illness, but life must go on and weaving is so good for the spirit. Dave my husband would be so proud of the way I am coping without him.

New Tapestry of Church Rock, Broadhaven Beach Pembrokeshire
After a long break due to family commitments, I have started weaving again, this time a scene of Church Rock, Broadhaven Beach, Pembrokeshire. The photo for the tapestry was taken on very stormy day, thus more waves splashing on rocks.
