In December 1998 I moved to St Ives with my husband, two daughters and two cats.

Since then I have been making a range of textile products, including hand-dyed silk velvet scarves, handmade felt hats and bags.

I have also been running workshops on subjects including feltmaking, simple fabric dyeing, silk painting and more for both adults and children.

I have worked with local schools and groups such as Brownies, teaching African Batik, Feltmaking, Papermaking.

I run courses on Textile Techniques, Weaving Without a Loom and Get To Know Your Sewing Machine.

I really enjoy helping adults find their creativity, especially when they do not believe they have any.
