Shetland Dressing Board prints now available!
In 2022, I was asked to make drawings of various blocking boards from Shetland for a feature in the Shetland Wool Week Annual that year.
It was a delight to be involved.. I spent time in the archives studying different types of dressing board – often referred to as a brod - then worked in my studio to make the final drawings. It was a fascinating process to capture the unique character of each board.
