I am a textile artist working in the High Peak, UK. I have developed a technique for printing on fabric and then I use the printed material to create textile collages. These are appliqued to a range of handmade products including Shoulder Bags and Art Aprons. I also mount and frame my textile collages.
Increasingly I carve my own rubber stamps which I use in building my collages.

I have created a range of Art Journals which are made from recycled materials and have fabric covered bindings decorated with textile collage. The insides have signatures made from recycled envelopes which are embellished on a variety of themes including Artist, Garden, Travel, Frida, Art Deco, Alice, Weird, Rock, Goth and Steampunk. There are also place specific journals for Paris, Italy, Spain, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, New Orleans and others.
I produce books with slip covers made from recycled materials which can be used for writing, making notes, drawing and jotting down ideas. I also have Address Books, Birthday Books and Diaries in my range.
I make books with recycled upholstery leather covers and a series of books with denim pockets on the covers for storing pencils and other writing paraphernalia.
I also take commissions for personalised items in my ranges.
I offer my products at Craft Fairs in both England and the Chicago area of America. A schedule of my planned events can be seen here. There is also a shop on this website.
I hold a variety of workshops at my home and also at other venues.
I am available to give talks and demonstrations.
