The Love of Common Things – found poetry of Leopold Hartley Grindon is coming along nicely. Reading carefully through his writings and forming the poems is a labour of love that we don’t wish to rush. Therefore, this very special collection of poems won’t be ready until first quarter 2023. This book will also have a unique collection of ku pin felt brooches to complement some of the lovely poems. We have found a local Manchester charity for this publication, which we will be announcing at a later date.

coast to hinterland – eurobodalla is a little way off still. We endeavour to have that ready around first quarter 2023. Our ku pin felt brooch designs for the book are coming along nicely; one will certainly be the endangered Pied Oystercatcher and another, cute billy buttons. We are looking for a suitable local charity to share a percentage of the funds with.

Our aim is to share proceeds from each ku pin and each book & ku pin pack with the chosen charity.
