The balloons are up and aren’t they looking fabulous! First ascent of the weekend. #bristol
Thought it made sense to get this one out again. One I made earlier. #jeremyclarkson #embroidery
Delighted that my piece A Fanny For All Seasons has been selected for The House of Smalls exhibition In Her Hands. If in Edinburgh for the festival do go along (check web for opening hours). 2nd pic Fanny Cradock’s Pistachio icecream. Lush! I think @regretteruane.bsky.social would approve!
#fourphotosonemonth July Scant pickings in my collection this month! @collettwriter.bsky.social @tusenoch.bsky.social @leabysea.bsky.social @urbankisses.bsky.social
Kite Flying (work in progress) “Johnny was delighted with his Burnham kite! It had to be better than the deflated Starmer balloon…didn’t it?” To be completed #embroidery
Pond Scum! Another in my series of Trump as The Emperor With No Clothes. #embroidery
When you love the attention but not the scrutiny! #nigelfarage #embroidery
Tonight I will be putting on my “Margot” dress and raising a glass of Pea-pod wine to the magnificent Penelope Keith!
Here’s June Fanny! Over on insta I featured her ice cream recipes from her 1974 book Fanny Cradock’s Common Market Cookery ITALY Going to have a go at the Pistachio one. Not sure I’ve got any green food colouring though… #embroidery #fannycradock
Code Red for the planet. There is a special place in hell for those who deny climate change and work actively against it! Section of embroidery from my piece Covid-19 a handkerchief Part 7 #embroidery #climatechange #toohot
10 years on BREXIT still a con! Some embroideries I made earlier. #embroidery #brexit
He was hanging by a thread and now he has resigned. #kierstarmer #embroidery

Well done Makerfield! #makerfieldbyelection #embroidery
Attended the vigil last night to mark 9 years since the Grenfell fire where 72 people lost their lives. It was very moving. Still no one has been arrested or prosecuted. Nine years later! #justiceforgrenfell
Blinging It! which is going to be in !BRING ON THE BLING! part of FringeArtsBath There’s an opening party on Friday evening across the main venues. I can’t get to it but you should if you can! (Shout out to @patrioticmillionaires.org for a post on here that inspired this piece) #embroidery
Delighted that my piece Blinging It! Will be on show at Glassworks on Walcot Street Bath (Next door to the Bell Inn, just sayin!) The FringeArtsBath is on from 26 May- 6 June. If you’re in Bath do go and have a look!
WTF? So it is five houses Farage! (One I made earlier)
Reposting this one. Level playing field anyone? You’ve got to be kidding me! In a nutshell. #embroidery #angelarayner
Completely Deflated What a disaster! Mind you, you could see this coming from space! However why do people think that inviting the Brexit fox back into the hen house is the answer?! (Oh yes, they’ve been directed to do so by the billionaire media barons!) #embroidery
And look what I found! OK @urbankisses.bsky.social it’s not a button but a zip top is the closest I’ve got!! @collettwriter.bsky.social @leabysea.bsky.social @tusenoch.bsky.social
#fourphotosonemonth @leabysea.bsky.social @urbankisses.bsky.social @tusenoch.bsky.social April…running late
A rather shaky video of my piece “Blinging It!” which will be on show at Fringe Arts Bath. Thanks to @patrioticmillionaires.org who brought my attention to the 2026 Forbes List of Billionaires that informs the numbers. Of course they are an underestimate “royalty & tyrants are not included”!!
Been doing some embroidery based on the latest Forbes list of Billionaires which came out on 10 March 2026. Of course it is an underestimate. They don’t, for example include royalty or dictators! (Not sure which category Trump is in.) #embroidery
The annual conundrum; which to eat first? The chicken or the eggs!
‘I dreamt last night that I had cut those bully boys adrift in space. “Flotsam you’re jettisoned!”’ All this talk of Space reminded me of this piece I made last year. I had intended to add two more but literally ran out of time and space. May go back and add them in. #embroidery
