About The Artwork

'My work is based around fond memories growing up in Lancashire in the 1970’s. Some people write memoirs, I make hand-stitched embroideries. Food, local dialect and the colour red (as a nod to the red rose of Lancashire) often appear in some way in my art.


This piece is about our shared experiences of the first lockdown in 2020. It was designed in late summer and stitched just before lockdown 2. As I was stitching, I found myself doubting that some of these things had actually occurred - no planes in the sky and the loud sound of birdsong. We all lived through a joint experience in March that we’ll remember for years to come.'
