Susie Cowie

susie cowie has surely got the gift of alchemy

her pieces are achingly delicate, understated and so very precious

all the work that once went into doillies and is now written off as kitsch is re-written by her - quietly and elegantly

here is an interview and more beautiful photos of her work at the blog this is naive

I love this crochet and have wanted a thousand times to be able to crochet words, but harumpfh, I never seem to find time to learn

In the meantime, the work will be available here, you can sign up to be notified when it re-opens or why not leave a message on her beautiful blog, which is here
