About Me

My photo
I love working within all disciplines of textiles. Throughout my academic career I have been able to learn a variety of textile techniques. The range of work submitted feature drawing, constructed textiles, embroidery and fabric manipulation. I am very passionate about my work and I believe that the Textiles in Practice course will really help me develop and broaden my skills with it’s vast range of equipment and broadness of techniques that are taught on the course.
