Join me on TextileArtist.org!

I’m delighted to let you know that I have worked with TextileArtist.org to create a workshop for their Stitch Club members that goes live on Monday 30th June.

For those of you who don’t already know TextileArtist.org is a fabulous online resource for all things textile. Their Stitch Club delivers a wide variety of short mostly stitch based workshops with the occasional workshop on adding colour, mark and shape to cloth.

I loved the challenge of creating a short workshop based on breakdown printing (my favourite technique) that included worked samples of how the printed fabrics could be used to create hand stitched and machine stitched outcomes. I tried to keep it simple and, frankly affordable, so it is ideal for those want to try out a little bit of screen printing on their kitchen table without spending a fortune on stuff they might not use again. That said, breakdown printing is addictive!

The workshop is video based, supported by a detailed workbook. There will be an ebook of what I hope are inspirational images of my work. Importantly I will be providing online support for Stitch Club members for the first two weeks after the workshop goes live.

To get the ball rolling TextileArtist.org have posted an interview with me that you can find here.

Exciting times!
