Makers Moot Visit Ann and Mike Miall

Maker’s Moot went on a visit this morning to our friends Ann and Mike Miall, experts in all things doll’s house. Mike puts the frames of the houses together, and makes all the furniture and fittings, whilst Ann makes the clothing and soft furnishings from her very fine patchwork, lace and cross stitch.
We finished with a tour of their beautiful garden.

The Walled Garden Helen’s Bay

Lovely morning spent with Lorraine Small at the Walled Garden in Helen’s Bay. We had a walk around the gardens, inspected the serious amount of building work that’s underway – with sustainability at its core.
