New Spinning Group at New Barn Farm

There were five of us at the first new Longdraw spinning group at New Barn Farm, Bulkington (5 mins from J2 M6). The group will meet again on Saturday 8th December i.e. second Saturday in every month, from now on.

About Me

I'm a woman with a mission about long draw spinning: life's too short for anything less! It's fun, fast and very satisfying when you draw out an arm's length of thread rather than just a few inches.

Try it this month at Fibre East - Have a Go Zone. Or come to Summer School at Uppingham School in August. In September am a keynote speaker at The Big Textile Show this year. I teach spinning and weaving to individuals, run workshops, residential courses and visit groups and guilds.

I was taught by Elizabeth Palmer nearly 30 years ago and have been spreading the word ever since. I started the Guild of Long draw spinners in 2007 because no one seemed to know about long draw. I take genuine pleasure in other peoples' success and they say I am an inspirational teacher.

I live in Stoke Albany with my husband Bob; we keep hens and grow fruit and vegetables. I have three children, seven grandchildren and a horse called Nola. Besides my passion for all 'woolly things', I love horses and music and am a very happy and fulfilled person.
