Portobello The word means "Beautiful Haven", and Venice must be one of the most beautiful havens in the world - But my aim is not to fill you just with dreams of where you want to be, but with beautifully designed craft items to fill that haven where you choose to relax and construct your craft. I have been fortunate to travel to many countries, I have also been extremely lucky to have grown up in a family where time spent on craft was a daily event. My grandmother taught me to knit and to crochet, and to dressmake, to work with raffia and to embroider, all whilst I was a very young child.
In my own home I Have made lampshades, Hobby Horses, made and painted Ceramics, painted fabric and canvas, all before I discovered the art of Cardmaking and Scrapbooking both of which encompassed all the other crafts I had ever learnt, and which quickly became my passion.
