This audio forms part of a series of audio interviews conducted in 2023 by Smartify as part of the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands project. Listen and discover the Spirit of the Highlands and Islands through the eyes of the stitchers of the Tapestry of the Highlands and Islands.
Listen to Sandra as she discusses her passion for salmon fishing in the Spey - the inspiration behind her journey stone - in conversation with the Strathspey Stitchers.
I just love it, it is absolutely therapeutic. And you're in parts of the river that you wouldn't see! You just lose yourself, the day passes. 9-5 and it's just gone - and no salmon!
