Welcome fellow textile enthusiasts! I hope you will enjoy browsing this new web site, showcasing my textile work. Often inspired by history from intricate Elizabethan embroidery with its coiling flowers, interesting beasts and insects, to the wonderful Victorian age, an excuse for plenty of ribbons, lace, beads and floral imagery. I also run textile workshops from my home on the Nottinghamshire / Leicestershire border. Click here to visit my blog.
