| Interests | I'm passionate about textiles, faded florals, Toile de Jouy, rich damasks, braids and edgings. Embroidery has got under my skin. Love to collect old postcards, letters, buttons and lace. I can easily lose myself in art galleries, libraries and book shops. Music, art and creating are the food for my soul. I love interiors, cooking, gardening, heritage roses, movies, music, art, books, reading and walking every day. |
