I also had the chance to drop in to Elizabeth Sykes Batiks. I used to work for Liz on and off for a few years at the studio/gallery and loved every minute of it (even folding the many stacks of cards.) I must admit I probably distracted them for a little too long catching up on all the local news.

Alongside her stunning Batik work Liz sells a small range of my jewellery including this piece below, so if you are around on the island, perhaps for the upcoming whisky festival, why not pop in and have a look. (I can highly recommend the coffee and shortbread too!)
