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.

My plot pic

Here is a rather poor mobile pic of my allotment minus the thistles, well with the tops lobbed off anyway. I've obviously moved on a bit since then, but I haven't taken any pics since this one. I've been reading all sorts of horror stories about thistle roots that fill me with dread, but I'm decided to dig out as much as I can then just take it step by step throughout the year. Shame really as had the coin I tossed landed on heads I would have had a weed free plot. That's life.
