Y
Yarn
A yarn is a story of an incredible nature or length and a piece of thread spun from cotton or wool. I started to sew as a child. Sewing accompanied watching TV or being read to, so for me stories and pictures are intertwined with a needle and a thread. Historically needlework and craft are associated with women and the domestic environment so this is a natural link to my work and a source of ideas.
