Researching and reporting on the lives of some really interesting people (RIP)

JUDITH FOUND, aged 77

A globe-trotting fashion designer with a taste for fast cars, she taught-and inspired – many of Britain’s leading designers and textile experts.

DOROTHY BROMILEY, aged 93

Fame was thrust upon her when she was selected to appear in a Hollywood movie, but it disappeared quickly. She continued acting and became a textiles expert.

SHEILA PAINE, aged 92

An artist who abandoned her studies for love, she became a world expert on embroidery after a family tragedy, travelling throughout the world’s dangerous places in search of new textiles.
