Shop Now Open!Hello and welcome to my website.
My
work is all made by hand, I do not use a sewing machine and I dye my
own threads and fabrics to achieve subtle colours, which gives some of
the embroideries
a ‘vintage’ feel. Although I do repeat my designs from time to time,
each piece is unique as the colours and design details vary. Every work
offered for sale here (apart from the greeting cards) is the actual one you are buying. Payment can be made easily and securely online
by credit card.
Having
studied traditional embroidery techniques as well as contemporary
creative embroidery, I like to blend the two. By bridging the gap
between the disciplined domestic embroidery of great grandma’s day and
the simple informality of today’s design, we can feel in touch with the
past, whilst being very much in the present. I love to incorporate old
scraps of pretty fabric or old buttons into my work to make something
heart-warming from leftover bits and pieces that would otherwise be
thrown-away.
A bit of pretty recycling!
I hope you enjoy your visit. |
