I have been teaching for over 20 years and have an ongoing record of successful students who now run their own textile businesses, have careers in fashion design, have earned places at prestigious institutions internationally for further study and won awards.
.
My workshops are not all about people who want their art to be their business and I spend a lot of time working with groups and individuals who just want to make things for the enjoyment of the process. Many of my sessions look at aspects of crafting for health and wellbeing and I get regular reports about the positive impact they have on my students lives.
