This current series of stitchtags is titled "Common Threads" and began with me thinking about inheritances and the things that get passed down through families; heirlooms, antiques, property, money.
When my grandparents died they had nothing like this to pass on. However, I was very close to them and knew a lot about them, their habits, their loves and hates, shared memories and their Yorkshire language and sayings. I wanted to create my own heirlooms from this shared history and pass it on.
