Her unique, eye-catching designs, coupled with her fantastic use of bright, jewel-like colours, makes this book a treasure trove of ideas and inspiration that you will want to plunge into again and again.

All are based on simply rolling pieces of felt and binding them with beads, but they have an air of sophistication and style that makes them suitable to wear for any occasion.
Helen's Story
Having a happy, healthy child is what every expectant parent hopes and prays for. Imagine the devastation if your child is born healthy and, through medical misinformation, is transformed into a child that suffers permanent mental handicap and convulsions. This is what happened to Rosemary Fox shortly after her daughter, Helen, was born. As she sought explanations and compensation, she was told that she was damaging the vaccine programme and told to keep quiet. She refused, and campaigned to get the vaccination programme changed.

The decade culminated in a cholera epidemic in which tens of thousands of people in the Briti...

Unloose My Heart
A deeply personal memoir that unearths a family history of racism, slaveholding, and trauma as well as love and sparks of delight Marcia Herman's family moved to Birmingham in 1946, when she was five years old, and settled in the steel-making city dense with smog and a rigid apartheid system.
