Fife series | Lady's Tower, Elie | 25cm x 20cm
A mini weaving in the Fife series of the Lady Anstruther's Tower (on the coastal path near Elie). One of my favourite walks when staying in St Monans! I use gorgeous hand-dyed yarns and embroidery to pick out the details of the ruins and the coastal path - so satisfying to weave!

Landscape weavings are a labour of love to capture the feeling of a place, and the tonal variations that make it special.
I love to hand-dye yarns to create a palette of scruptious tones to work with. I also love to play with different textures, such as knotting to add some lumpiness for rocks, hedges and woods. Once the weaving is off the loom it is ready for embroidery to in add hedgerows or grasses in the foreground, and doors and windows on buildings - the finishing touches really help to make the weaving sing!
