So for this set of designs I’ve created patterns around this theme of festive gifts and edible treats. I’ve used a traditional palette of red and green, but I’ve made the greens a pretty teal colour. I’ve also added some tones of pink and blue, to change things up a bit. A couple of the designs also include some metallic gold thread, to add a bit of ..read more

Artwork above by Susan Bates For this set of designs the theme is cakes.... and lots of them! Whilst I try to eat healthily most of the time, it’s nice to indulge in a sweet treat now and again. I love to take some time to relax, usually with a cup of tea ...and a slice of cake goes perfectly well with this. For my first design in this set I've depicted a big slice of Victoria sponge cake, with pink icing and a juicy red strawberry on top. This classic cake really is one of my favourites and strawberries taste so nice! Plus they make me think of the summer, which can't be bad!  For the ..read more

As a child we used to go to Cornwall, in the West of England, for family holidays. Many of the beaches in Cornwall have beautiful golden sands and they can range in size from small coves to long st ..read more

I’ve always loved reading and so I wanted to illustrate this in my latest set of designs. As a child I would often spend hours reading. I’d even read at night by torchlight, under the bedclothes, after my parents had told me to go to sleep! I enjoy reading digital books, but I still prefer the tactile quality of reading a printed book. There’s something about a paperback or hardback book that is so nice to read and hold, as opposed to a book on your phone or tablet. Anyway, whatever format you like to use, my designs are intended to show how enjoyable reading can be. The patterns in this set ..read more

For me, the strawberry is quintessentially all about summer – it’s the fruit that I love to eat during the hot summer weather. My mum and dad used to grow strawberries in our back garden and we’d wait for them to turn ripe so that we could pick them and eat them – usually with cream or in a homemade trifle. The bright red color of the strawberry is beautiful and the smell and flavor of them is so appealing – I just love them! This set of designs came together quite quickly, as I knew that I was going to make strawberries the main focus. This of course meant that red had to be the main color ..read more
