Hi, Jill! I'm your fellow author from the OU forums. Susan, Gary, Freida and Trevor? Ring any bells? I clicked on your name to see if you had a blog and found your website instead. It's very interesting. I like painting in acrylics but have never tried textiles. I might have a go now as your website is quite inspirational. Best wishes to you - and good luck with the creative writing.

I always enjoy visiting your website, Jill - and looking at all the new and innovative ideas which you have. The butterflies are stunning!

Really enjoyed your looking at your work, Jill, such a variety of wonderful innovative pieces. Was hoping to get your address to send you a xmas card. Really liked your swan rug, will send you an email of felted swans l made last June for Morley college exhibition based on an old Irish myth of the Children of Lir.
Have a great Christmas and look forward to seeing you in January, hopefully my "rug" will have grown a bit!!

You're right Clare - KaliKo FolK are very tiny...and very soft.
I was just looking at your KaliKo Folk - they are great Jill and so tiny - but lovely and soft. I posted a comment on the page - I think! I said I just cannot keep up with you!

Thanks Clare
It was great meeting up with you in Harrogate....there were some amazing artworks to be seen. I particularly enjoyed Janet Browne's birds.

I should have done this before Jill and I apologise for my tardiness.
It was wonderful to see not only you at the Knitting & Stitching Show at Harrogate, but also your work. Actually getting close to 'Silent Spirit' made me realise just how much work you put into it - with so many different shades of silk. Quite the most beautiful piece of sheared rug hooking I have ever seen. It was presented very well - I walked along the Exhibition Hall and there it was - looking stunning! I also enjoyed seeing all your necklets, one of which I was proudly wearing.

Hi Jill
A completely new website - wonderful - very crisp and concise. Love your new work for sale, too. Cannot make up my mind between the zingy bag, the Poppy Field or the Ammonite Tote - maybe all three come in equal. And I have just read your Haiku - brilliant!

Just took a quick look and saw YOU, holding Silent Swan. Magnificent work, and so nice to see you. I'll be back to see more. Just realized that I missed the opportunity of seeing your work in Columbia. Rats! My life was too hysterical.

Thanks for your comments Clare - not long till Harrogate - Jill
Wow Jill, I have just been looking at your updated website - it is very inspiring, and makes me want to 'get cracking' again! Thank you for including the pincushion - fame at last!!
I am looking forward to seeing your work 'in the flesh' at the Knitting & Stitching Show in Harrogate - and to meeting up with you again, too.
