I had work in "A Letter in Mind" at the Oxo Gallery, September 2017 and again in 2018.

"On the edge of silence" was part of CQ's "On the Edge" touring exhibition.

"Suturing", which was part of the Prescriptions exhibition, Beaney House of Art and Knowledge, Canterbury, is now in the Beaney's library collection.

"The Daily Round" was shown in Threads - Contemporary Textiles Open at Salisbury Art Centre , 1 Oct to 12 Nov 2016

Published on BMJ Blogs - "Suffering for Art" - exhibition "Black & Blue" by Penny Clayden and Chris Day, at Free Space Gallery, Kentish Town Health Centre

"At the Edge of the Quilt", in Through Our Hands magazine:
"The Stitched Drawings of Georgie Meadows", May 2015 (pp 42-47, issue 4)
"Textile Taxidermy", November 2014 (issue 3)
"Colour me unusual" [Anna Dumitriu], August 2014 (issue 2; adapted for BMJ Blogs, published online 24 October 2014);
"Joe Cunningham's quilts", May 2014 (issue 1)


My most recent article on Ragged Cloth Cafe is "White gloves at the ready!" - the issues involved in getting people to steward at large quilt shows.


Showing online: "Walking the Museum Maze" was part of "Inspired by ..." at Morley Gallery (May-June 2014). The exhibition catalogue is online via the gallery's website.
"The Moth's Journey" (2001) was part of the Quiltart Straight and Narrow Challenge.


Quote of the moment:

“Creativity is intelligence having fun”

Albert Einstein
