This is a textile artwork which can be used as a wall-hanging or single bed quilt. A rich textured double-sided, black and white quilt. The imagery is inspired by plant forms in Puglia, Italy. The designs are created by stitch and fabric crayon drawing. Two layers of cloth are finely stitched, using a long-arm quilting machine and hand stitching, sandwiching a layer of cotton wadding. Washed to finish.

A textile wall-hanging – textile landscape – a major project, inspired by a visit to the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford. My stitch drawings developed from studying the collection, which I linked with imagery from my local rural landscape, to make the final quilt, stitching layers of black and white cotton fabrics and wadding together by hand and machine. Made to pay homage to those great inventors, makers, artists and craftspeople who have gone before us.

This is a textile collage wall-hanging, made from fine silks and cottons. The leaf shapes are created with Cyanotype printing, using the sun’s rays. Several layers of fabric and stitch make up the image; backing cloth, wadding and more stitching make up the finished textured piece. It is inspired by the natural world, leaf forms & fossilised leaves. The delicate layers of the blue silk catch the light in different ways throughout the day.
