Eleanor Lee

Hello I’m Eleanor, I live in Caithness with my son and two wee rescue dogs. I have sewn and crafted for many years creating many items ranging from soft furnishings to collectables to ‘Caithness Capes’.

I am interested in the sustainability of products and projects within the creative world and how this relates to our environment. For this project I am focusing on my new venture creating unique handsewn figures from sustainable materials, such as Hemp Hessian, ‘saved elements’ local wool and Scottish tweed. The figures are based on tradition, legends and lore from Old Norse and Caithness.
