Hello from the Cotswolds!

This corner of southern England is beloved for its picturesque beauty: its valleys dotted with ancient woodland, thriving farmland and villages of honey-coloured stone cottages.

It’s one of my favourite parts of the county – particularly during the autumn months when the air feels almost impossibly clean and fresh. The brambles which line the lanes are teeming with blackberries and the falling leaves make carpets of ochre and gold along misty lanes and bridle tracks. Orchards heave with apples. Children forage for champion conkers under horse chestnuts while pubs begin lighting their fires: local ale and root vegetables are the heart of Sunday lunches again.

The towns and villages in the Cotwolds are practically perfect: they are the definition of quintessentially English. One of the most notable for me is Tetbury – teeming with shops and cafes, and the heart of a bustling wool and yarn market in the Middle Ages. Not far away is Burford, shrouded by hills which are topped with frost in late autumn, with a beautiful broad high street where Georgian town houses and terraced cottages rub shoulders. The wisteria and ivy that climbed over building facades all summer has now turned into shades of amber and bronze.

I love seeing upturned wellies outside cottage doors and muddy paw prints on cobblestones – this is a familiar vignette for me, evoking my many walks through lightly-fogged fields with Bruno, my Labrador whose coat is the same shade as fallen Birch leaves. At dusk, the trees cast increasingly leafless silhouettes on village greens and windows glow from the light of candles and log fires inside. It is knitted jumper and red wine season again!

All of this has inspired my latest fabric collection, which celebrates the colours of autumn in the Cotswolds and is named after some of its prettiest places.
