about

LAURA: For nine years my second daughter made her home in Finnish Lapland deep within the Arctic Circle. Each winter brought three sun-less months of perpetual dusk
over frozen lakes and silent white forests.
I often found myself looking for bits of haberdashery to post to Laura to feed her passion for ‘making’ things for her home and to send back to friends and family in England, keeping connected.

lyrics

LAURA by Carol Fieldhouse

I’m looking for Laura, wool, felt and pearls
Patchwork and silk thread...shaping her world

I’m looking for Laura, she’s stitching her world
Haberdash junkie, Marremeko girl, Marremeko

Her home’s far away in the dark Suomi night
In a silent white forest a cabin’s light

Old jeans and sacking she crafts late at night
To send home to England Laura’s light

I’m looking for Laura, wool, felt and pearls
Patchworked, embroidered, shaping her world

Ice flows and reindeer, wide Rothko sun
Spreads on the horizon, Spring will come

Each day an adventure of all she’ll know
Herself and the forest, to see them grow

Laura, looking for Laura
