Thanks Sheila - if not least for being called a "girl!"
I've just got to find the time to start now, but I spent hours in bed last night mulling over some ideas.

Hi There
I've just added a few more examples of my canvaswork pieces to my blog.
Sorry, couldn't get the link to work on the last comment.
Love this piece, in fact i love your work. I enjoyed doing canvas work for a couple of years looking at yours makes me want to start again. Regards Chris
Marion,
Welcome to stitchin fingers. I have been drooling over photos of your work here and on your blog. I have always looked at canvas work for ideas to design patchwork, but have never seen anything as interesting as yours. Look forward to seeing more!

Profile Information
What aspect of textiles are you interested in?
I love texture and colour and have spent a long time exploring them through the medium of freestyle neeplepoint
Where did you learn your textle skills?
I have a BA Hons in Textile Design and Embroidery from Dundee Art College in Scotland.
Anything else you want to say to introduce yourself to the group??
I started my professional life as an embroiderer, teacher and lecturer, but moved into a business designing and manufacturing cards and gifts with a textile base. This has taken up all of my "creating" time until now, but I seriously want to find some time to get back to working in needlepoint and related textile arts for my own satisfaction. I'm looking forward to inspiration and encouragement from this group.
