In the summer of 2012, my designs were exhibited at The House Mill in Bromley By Bow as part of the first annual “Makers at the Mill” showcase. I have now been invited back to showcase my “Fun Timer” pendant.
Makers at the Mill is now a yearly event which takes place at the House Mill, a grade 2 listed 18th Century Tidal Mill, built across the River Lea and situated enroute to the Olympic village via boat. It is also accessible by bus and via the London Underground network. This year it will take place from September 19th – 28th, starting just in time for the London Open House Weekend. Two other designers, Elsa Tierney and Carol Zilla (whom I happen to share my studio space with) will also have their 2012 “mill inspired” pieces on display. Fellow JeDeCo members, Catherine Marche, Cindy Dennis Mangan and Emma Lavery will showing and selling selected designs along with their own specially made pieces inspired by the Mill. As always, my studio work mate and fellow JeDeCo member Rosemary Lucas is co-curating and is showcasing new jewellery from her River collection, this time inspired by the River Lea.
The selling exhibition features fine art, print-making, photography, ceramics, copper etching, wire sculpture and artist-textiles as well as jewellery. (Please note that the “mill inspired” pieces by myself, Elsa and Carol will be for display purposes only at the Mill, and one will have to contact us directly for purchase enquiries).

How to get there:
By Road
Three Mills Island is easy to find being very close to the intersection between the Blackwall Tunnel Approach (A12) and the Bow Flyover (Bow Interchange). Take the South exit and follow the signs to Tesco along the slip road (Hancock Road). By the Tesco car park you will see a barrier across the road before the bridge leading to the island. No parking is permitted on the island so park where you can and cross the river on foot.
If any of the visitors are disabled, please notify us in advance so that we can make arrangements to have the barrier lifted.
By Tube
Bromley-by-Bow station, which is on the District and Hammersmith and City underground lines, is about 5 minutes walk away. See map for alternate stations.
By Bus
