About me



I'm a half Finnish designer who has since taken a break to bring up my children. I used to work in Graphic Design, but now I prefer working with textiles and illustration. This blog is about my allotment and garden. I have been gardening for many years and grew up watching my mum and dad do the same. I began my allotment in Jan 2010 in memory of my father who passed a way just before then. I also love cooking and finding inventive and delicious ways to make my produce into meals. I'm growing with my experiences, and welcome any helpful advice! Sometime soon I hope to use my garden as inspiration for my art.

Our house



This is our little cottage, second from the right in the terrace. It's compact and Bijou, well actually it's mostly compact and not so bijou, but we do what we can with our resources. I love the way it looks like it's been in that field forever, but it's really just been there a couple of hundred years. A neighbour gave me a census from a hundred years ago, at that time there were 8 people living here, 6 children! I can't believe it. I'm constantly moaning about having no space with two!
