‘I grew up on the coast not far from the white cliffs of Dover and am very familiar with spoondrift although I didn’t know there was an actual name for it until very recently. I have always loved being by the sea; not on hot, busy days but on the blustery, windswept and bracing ones when we have the place to ourselves and come home feeling exhilarated with rosy cheeks and cold toes. My ‘Spoondrift’ quilt is inspired by these cherished carefree days by the seaside.’ – Janet Clare
