"When creating my nesty baskets, sometimes I have a clear idea of the shape they will take, other times their form evolves from the shape of the base or as a happy accident when I am trying to form new shapes. It is almost a meditative process while stitching and shaping where patience is key. My favourite part is the feathers, when I literally 'feather my nests.' I love the colour and brilliance of the feathers, and how this changes depending on the light. Often it is the most unusual combination of colour and pattern that are the most successful." Jo Old
