The Incredible Woman
OK, it’s time to ‘fess up! A number of friends are doing the family thing – buying houses, remembering to have children, and even managing long term relationships. And it truly never ceases to amaze me the energy required to manage things like school lunches, coffee mornings, play group, being the attentive partner – as well as working! Congratulations – I couldn’t do it..

Feeling 40 something, and restless – I up-rooted my family and shifted to Christchurch to spend some time with Tim's family.
As we left our Wellington home I felt a tremendous sadness, and a nervousness about where we were going. This design is in response to that need to have a place to put my things and nuture my family -so… to this house I bring my heart, which makes it home…

All Things Kiwi
This design contains a few of what I see as the typical New Zealand icons. A sheep; a black shearers singlet; Hokey Pokey icecream; a chocolate fish; a pair of jandals for summer wear; the pukeko or swamp hen; an orange roughy; the cabbage or Ti tree (which looks like something out of a Dr Suess book); the Kiwifruit; and of course, the Kiwi. The stars represent the Southern Cross constellation. And the clouds represent the Maori name for New Zealand (Aotaearoa – Land of the Long White Cloud)

The Swim
The water was vaguely warm
The only sound, my own breathing
The little fish darted away and then back
looking at me.
The seaweed wobbled
just like my hair
Swimming in the lagoon:Samoa 2003. This is a really strong image that I took away with me – I would have had on a snorkle, but that is not such a pretty thing to embroider!
If I ever need a place to go in my head – where everything stands still, and all the noises stop, and there is no weight or pressure, then I use this.

Cloud Watcher
She lay in the meadow to watch the sky
Forming cats and dogs, and a hawk on the fly
And somewhere between, it now and then
she lost herself totally, forgetting the when!
