Gallery

Welcome to my gallery, here you will see completed works of art alongside works in progress and small sections of work. Each piece is painstakingly hand embroidered. I love combining the imagery of fast things like polaroids with the length of time it takes to stitch one piece. You can purchase prints, cards and originals. I also exhibit all over the place in the UK, please see my exhibition page for details. Feel free to message me if you would like more information about these. It is also possible to follow my progress on instagram. Some of these images have links to more detailed information about how they were made. Please click on the links below.
