During these last few months I’ve been (distanced) working with a local community group, Friends of Brookmill Park.

The gardening volunteers wanted waistcoats that had big pockets and space to print ‘Brookmill Park Volunteers’ on the back, and, they wanted to be able to sew the waistcoats themselves! – I’m really impressed by that part of the brief; but it does mean I have to provide really, really, good instructions, which is an extra challenge – but really enjoying the process. Five toiles and paper patterns later, we’re getting close to finalising the design!
