Hi, fellow quilting artists!  I am a confessed Quilting addict… married to Ken, with two grown up children, both married and pursuing their own respective careers.

Having taught Special Needs students Creative Textiles for many years, I retired early to pursue my love of textiles in the form of Workshops, Demonstrations, and Speaking engagements. I offer a varied selection of  workshops, both in traditional and contemporary quilting. I love to specialise in Art Quilting, using Free Machining and Embellishing techniques, encouraging students to produce a personalised unique piece of work.

My most popular workshop so far being “Textured Layers”, a most forgiving and yet satisfying experience! Also, my love of all things African is expressed in my “Massai Warriors” workshop. I have two Talks entitled, “Show ‘n’ Tell… my personal experience of Quilting“, and “Patchwork & Poetry”, poetry being another form of creative expression I enjoy.

My Mission Statement

Through the teaching and sharing my passion for both Tradition and Creative textiles, I take great encouragement from inspiring my students to gain the confidence and belief in creating their own unique piece of quilting art, and stretch their own boundaries.
