The Wordsmith by Janet Clare

Wordsmith (n.) one who creates with words

"I've often wished that I kept a diary or an art journal but after many attempts I've had to admit that I'm just not that sort. And yet, I really do want to remember and record our ordinary days. After all, what you do every day is more important than what you do once in a blue moon.

One day I realised that I could simply stitch our stories and here we are. 'The Wordsmith' is about noticing and cherishing the simple things in life. It's about love letters, little notes and finding pressed flowers in favourite books. Now's the time to quieten your mind, gather your memories and slowly piece them together with beautiful fabrics to create a lasting cloth to be treasured by generations to come: a quilted memory to cherish.

So come, gather your letters and your threads and be a wordsmith with me".
