I am available for one day and two day workshops designed to teach techniques and processes which participants can take in their own direction. I work with a combination of stitch, paints and mixed media.
I am happy to deliver workshops to Textile and Papercraft groups, with due consideration given to distance to travel. Contact me to discuss your requirements.
These are the workshops I offer.
NEW FOR 2026
Two new workshops making fabric books plus a workshop experimenting with Text in Textiles. More details to come.
Petite Book
Scraps book
Using fabric scraps left over from other projects make an interesting and textural book.
Using Text in Textiles
A day playing with the various ways that text can be used in your textile work or inspire your work.
Other workshops:
Painted Tiles
A one day workshop using acrylic paints, stencils, Thermofax screens, stamps and printing with a Venice/Gothic architecture theme. A kit will be provided (at extra cost) which includes a 20cm square canvas, cotton fabric and different papers. The morning consists of using the wet media on the fabric and papers. The afternoon is spent hand stitching and assembling the ‘tile’. For those not inspired by an architectural theme there is the possibility of a nature theme.
Hanging Book
A one day workshop which introduces the hanging book. Full instructions are given for assembling the book with participants assembling their books during the workshop or later at home. There will be two methods of making the book offered on the day which participants can choose from. Other ideas for making this style of book will also be shown. The book will not be finished in one day.
Exploding Book
suitable for textile groups or papercraft groups
An introduction to assembling an exploding book – easier than you think! A collage based workshop using paper and card which can be developed into textiles. Various styles and uses for the book will be suggested. Three other methods of folding a book will also be shown.
I am also available for Talks.
