As a graduate in textile design, I developed a range of needlepoint kits in the1980s. From that, I progressed to designing bespoke rugs which are woven for me in Nepal by skilled weavers. The talk covers my needlepoint ranges and my subsequent rug designs. The manufacture of the rugs in Kathmandu is accompanied by beautiful images of Nepal and its people.
