about rachel warrillow:
Rachel lives in a beautiful spot in a village called Heptonstall, at the top of a hill in West Yorkshire, having returned to her home county after 21 years away and is at her happiest when she's making things, thinking about making things or talking about making things. Crafting is her passion, therapy, business, and a way to connect to the world. She adores pattern and colour, her rescue cats, books, being in her pyjamas and amazing vegan food.
