First Ever Blog Post

I am new to blogging so am i not quite sure what to write, but i am going to blog about my textiles and weaving work. I am a textile design graduate from Nottingham Trent, currently starting out as a Designer Maker in the North East of England. Today I have been setting up my loom to make cotton scarves in peacock like colours. I am so excited to start weaving with it. They will be very striking when finished.
