Not much to report this week, so I'll digress on the new garden in Birmingham, for where I have been struggling to find that most proasic of vegetables (fruits, I suppose): rhubarb. I have always thought I hated rhubarb but one day a few months back, my colleague, Claire Price, brought in a jar of jam for us to eat at one of our regular staff breakfasts.

One of the newest pieces in the Shape Series is this brooch - the speckled pattern over the textured metal works well, I think. Would like to find a venue to show these.
