I love doing applique, although some shapes are easier than others, it takes some skill to make sure its symmetrical and precise. Being an activist I love the CND peace sign and have used it a few times on clothing and accessories now. I am also influenced by spiritualism hence the use of the Yin Yang and triple moon symbol.
Everything I make is from vintage or reclaimed fabric remnants, and each product is unique

The orange cushions below are made completely from vintage fabrics, and wouldn't look out of place in a Starsky and Hutch programme.

I love these butterfly cushion covers I made so much that I have some on my sofa. Like all of my products, each one is individual. The retro print fabrics are so vibrant and funky, I get lost in them. The other main fabrics are corduroy, a hard wearing fabric, which reminds me of the 70s. With a zip fastening they are easily removable to wash.
I made a patchwork and applique bed spread, with matching pillow cases and bungs. The sentiment of home is where 'Foxy Lady Is', is very apt when your home moves

Finally, I made this Yin Yang cushion for my cousins 50th birthday. I used true vintage fabric from that era, I I chose to do Yin and Yang apart from the fact I love the symbol, which represents balance, if you look at it a certain way it looks like 69, which is the year she was born
