Workshop Programme

I’m a practising textile artist and educator with a strong track record in community teaching and adult facilitation. I run a variety of textile workshops from Modern Tapestry Weaving to Quilting, from my Studio in Lewisham, and across the UK.

My approach centres on learning through doing - supporting people to grow confidence with textile practices, develop creative expression, and connect with others.

Please see below for more information on any upcoming workshops. If you would like to hire me for events, including birthdays, baby showers and wedding celebrations please contact me!
