This interest has remained an important part of my life, from making Christmas presents on my Nana’s old treadle machine; to teaching multiple skills at the Knitting & Stitching Shows, as well as Festival of Quilts. After a 35 year career as an Occupational Therapist in the NHS, I changed direction in 2016 and focused more on teaching skills to others and working on my own projects. I have mastered a wide repertoire of skills in both Knitting and Sewing. I teach a wide range of knitting techniques, from Entrelac to Magic Loop. But sewing is where my strongest passion lies. The back bone of this is in making clothes. However, I have a keen interest in exploring the variety of ways to embellish fabrics, especially by Shisha, free motion embroidery and Quilting. It might look like these are all just different tangled threads, but my aim is to bring it all together into a beautiful fabric of coherent and unique wearable art.
