About me
I am a textile design graduate, My work is playful and explores mixed media techniques! I like to work with embroidery mainly but also print and dyeing. I also love exploring other pathways such as creating film sets, styling in photoshoots and creating my own jewellery, selling it both in person and on my website.
Projects
  • Out of Place
    Out of PlaceMy first project of Third year, Looking at out of place and lost objects and recreating them through my drawings and then in my textile designs.
  • Photoshoot, langauge of flowers
    Photoshoot, langauge of flowersI styled this shoot by creating pieces through machine sewing and hand dyeing fabrics to create this result on a budget. I aslo sourced and loaned out clothes i found or already owned. These ideas were all based on the images and moodboards i had seen (created by Max). Photographer- Max Thatcher
