About me
I am a textile design student, 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 jewllery, selling it both in person and on my own website.

  • Photoshoot -
    Photoshoot -I 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
