2016 Gold Award Winner Craft & Design Selected Maker – Textiles & Needlecrafts
Well, it’s two weeks until the Heaton Festival – so it’s full steam ahead- today has been spent painting roads, naming streets and printing cafes- maybe I’ll do some ‘research’ in those cafes next week☕️😄
Two workshops next week, on Wednesday and Friday, I hope you are looking forward to pom-poms and printing:)
But now it’s nearly 🍷⏰ enjoy your weekend everyone!
I am a professional textile artist specializing in Appliqué and Free Motion machine stitching. In order to create a unique colour palette, I hand dye my own fabrics and then use these to create the landscapes and coastal scenes recorded in my sketchbook. I often incorporate recycled or vintage fabrics in my work - they add meaning to the story the work is telling. I love being so close to the Northumbrian coast and countryside and I especially like taking time walk and draw these stunning landscapes View more posts
