from What We Do In The Winter · host Alasdair Satchel
This episode is a chat with textile artist Shirley Pinder. Shirley grew up in Tobermory where her Mother and Father ran Strongarbh House and the Gallery on the Main Street, where they sold various things including materials woven by her father and herself. Shirley brings her childhood and family clearly to life while also giving us a very fine picture of how her own career developed along with bringing up her family. Shirley’s given me lots of photos and other bits and bobs for the website so do check them out along with the episode links on whatwedointhewinter.com We've made a short listener survey to find out how people engage with WWDitW which will also help us to find ways to grow the podcast. If you've got a couple of minutes spare we'd be very grateful to hear from you on the link below. Thank you! https://forms.gle/YThUZhQCb72myJFd6 Thanks for listening!
