About
In a small town in the heart of County Durham, I spend my days doodling and stitching in my light and airy studio which overlooks the garden, where I also teach small groups how to sew and discover the addictive world of Free-Motion Machine Embroidery and Applique.

Growing up surrounded with fabrics and threads and watching my mum sew and fix clothes for my brother and I, helped me draw on my creativity and learned the values of Make and Mend from an early age, values of which I share these with those I teach too. |
|
I am always actively working towards a healthier greener future by trying to source natural, organic fabrics, which are ethically produced alongside using both vintage and as many of my scraps as possible – even the tiniest – turning my illustrations into intricate textile artwork, lovingly embellished with a twist of Mixed Media on occasions and embellished with my unique style. |

A huge part of my work is influenced by nature and being a mum. My children (now teens) have grown watching me and create. I encouraged them to find their voice and explore their own creativity to which I drew pockets of inspiration and looked at the environment from their eye. |
| Having created many Keepsakes, Gifts and Accessories over the years, being trusted with bespoke commissions and your treasured clothing filled with memories has been joyous, and one I will always treasure, which is why I am now wanting to share the experience with you so that you too can learn how to craft your own keepsakes. |

Qualified and having had previous experience as a College Lecturer I am now introducing beautiful Sewing kits and PDF’s for you to sew at home and recently launched my 1st Online Course ‘Introduction to Keepsake Making’, where I teach you 3 Keepsake Projects and walk you through them step by step. The course is being updated regularly to keep it fresh and eventually looking its best |
I give 100% of my love, care and attention to everything I create for you or teach and hope that it makes you 100% happy.
