Crazy Maisy
On Thursday I spent a great few hours taking part in a workshop run by a local textile artist Mandy Pattullo . The theme for the day was"gloves" and we were tasked with designing a glove from an array of recycled materials. Part of the brief was to say who would wear the glove and for what occasion.
My glove was for Maisy , a slighly excentric, retired lady with a passion for her garden, She lives in a run- down cottage with a well kept cottage garden. She wears her gloves when visiting summer flower shows.
