Stones, seedpods and flower buds form dainty wrist bags and purses that wouldn’t look out of place on the arm of a Faery Queen.

She passes on her knowledge with a series of workshops aimed at intermediate and advanced abilities. For details of these, and to see work currently available please visit Kathleen’s website.
