About the practice

I adore vintage textiles, lace and embroidery are so tactile and visually exciting. They are the highlights of the designs and I use thoughtful pattern cutting and hacking to ensure the best use of my precious fabrics. Many of the embroidery pieces are over 50 years old, and have been lovingly made by housewives from the 30s thru to the 70s. I collect vintage lace whenever I find it. This gives my designs a delicate feminine edge. Many of my designs are white due to the nature of the fabric but I love to work with colour too. I have some designs using kantha quilts and curtains that are bolder and patterned. My favourite way to work, is creating bespoke items with a client, in my studio. I also enjoy the freedom to create ready to wear pieces when I have time. I made Blythe doll clothes as a hobby, as you can see in my profile picture.
