My name's Sally Stone and I create contemporary jewellery & textiles out of constructed fabric, buttons & other materials. Using things unusually, working at different scales, experimenting, upcycling & recycling are all part of what I like to do.
And when I’m not doing that, I’m probably yarnstorming or planning the next
yarnstorming project. These community
art projects that I design, deliver and install take the form of outdoor textile
artworks, usually on specific themes, often raising money for charity.
Or I might be blogging about what I’ve seen, what I’m doing or what I’ve
learnt, including posts on exhibitions, workshops, art and installations.
But I could be running a creative workshop or delivering a talk.
And in case you didn’t know I’m an extreme knitter and a secret haiku
writer.
For me, it's all about making, connecting, learning and having fun in a colourful world. I’m lucky enough to do it all from the beautiful city of York. And it all began with Grandma’s button tin and a love of colour and texture...
