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.

2010

Here I am back in 2010. New me, new hair, new ambitions. I'm feeling powered up and excited by the prospects of a fresh annum.

So far we've battled snow for two weeks, I've put my name down for an allotment and I'm thinking of joining a gym. I can hear you cry, 'these are all doomed for failure'! But if you know me well enough, you'll know once I"m committed, I'll do it.

Nearer on the horizon the family collective will be taking a long awaited break to see my friend in Wales, sometime at the end of Feb. Further on, we have a holiday booked in Widemouth Bay for a week in September.

...and in between, an election, Mike will have a new job, so the horizon beckons!
