At Sir Harold Hillier Gardens, Ray and I visited 'Textile Art and More' in the exhibition room, by a group of artists who collaborate with Alison to showcase their work. I loved all the colours, designs and textures: pictures, pinnies, cases for glasses, covers on books to write in, greetings cards and indeed much more.

We chose a picture of tall silhouetted trees; I also liked a fabric piece among the unfinished dyed squares going for a song. Somehow I had picked up a sample, not for sale, but Alison agreed to let me take it.

It did lead to a little conversation and she spoke about her craft work as her passion and her life, and her joy when anybody is moved enough to acquire a piece to have in their home.

She was happy to stand in front of one of her pieces so I could take a portrait.

Alison's studio is located on the edge of the New Forest in a building which was formerly a dairy and a cheese factory. She also gives talks - “My life in stitches” - and organizes workshops there, and at other venues.

For her, exhibitions are an opportunity to meet new people and share her enthusiasm. In 2018 she used a body of her work at 'The Knitting and Stitching Show' to depict the difficulties in her past life which resulted from her dyslexia.

An interesting and lovely encounter: my thank you and our goodbyes exchanged, we left for our usual walk around the gardens.

We all start as strangers.....

It was just about this time last year that Alison's Adventures and I were in Fiji and captured this sequence on photo and GoPro. Got enough underwater photos to last me a lifetime ... and topside shots too.

The hair! I actually set up this shot in barely 10 minutes ... Not perfect, but not bad considering this was shot in a salon with 2 bare flashes. I will share details soon at www.jcm-photo.com/blog

The Alison Louise, a trawler that has been sitting at the harbour in Glencaple for nearly 10 years. It had been brought here for repair but has caused a lot of concern that nothing has been done and its gradually rusting away, being nothing more than an eye sore to the village.Glencaple near Dumfries.
