Susie Vaughan

Susie, captivated by the simple weaving process, specialises in making hedgerow baskets using prunings from different trees and hedges that she collects on local walks in South Wales where she has lived for most of her life. Colour and texture is of prime importance. The woods are not dyed, the variety of colour comes from the natural barks of many different common species. Susie also makes felt hangings and bags, using local fleece and dyed merino, combining it with carefully chosen pieces of driftwood, honeysuckle and ivy to create unique pieces of natural art. Sometimes her feltwork & weaving are combined.
