Heartlands - Kenmore and Loch Tay

Angela lives near Aberfeldy and has been a Gallery owner for 9 years.

Her very early childhood was spent in Singapore before the family returned to Scotland when she was aged 3.

While a politics student at university in Glasgow Angela made clothes, curtains and blinds. She then moved to London where she worked as a management consultant in accountancy and finance. However after 30 years she decided she "wanted to take early retirement and do something that had nothing to do with finance”, so after leaving London she got back into sewing again.

Angela’s grandmother was a seamstress for a theatre company in Birmingham as well as making clothes for Angela and her sister, and her mother also sewed, and Angela “likes colour, and loves Harris tweed”. She also describes herself as a “puppy wrangler and a procrastinator”. Of Kenmore, she says:

The view shows the immensity and beauty of mother nature who is so generous to us and so makes me think there must be something else out there.
